Abstract:
The detection of immune cell subsets plays a very important role in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of various benign and malignant diseases and health management. In order to better carry out in-depth research on different functional immune cell subsets, establish reference intervals for clonality related indicators, establish special reference intervals for immune aging, individualized dynamic monitoring and treatment recovery, and discover the clinical significance of immune cells other than lymphocytes, it is urgent to analyze the peripheral blood immune cell subsets in a refined way. Multiparameter flow cytometry is an important technical method to detect immune cell subsets and evaluate immune function. In order to standardize the refined detection methods and protocols of peripheral blood immune cell subsets by flow cytometry, and further promote its application in clinical diagnosis and treatment of diseases and health management, Laboratory Medicine Committee of Chinese Association of Integrative Medicine (LMC-CAIM) organized experts to formulate this expert consensus.
