One hundred fifty thousand cells in a vaginal, ectocervical and endocervical smears from 25 patients with poorly to moderately differentiated squamous cancer of the uterine cervix were evaluated to determine the numerical composition of cellular clusters, the sizes of the clusters and the cellular types contained. The study is a baseline assessment for the design of automated cytology devices for which monocellular layers or individual cells are of importance. The evaluation indicates that the majority of cells appear in actual or facultative clusters, and that dispersement or breaking up of these clusters can yield improved machine-readable samples.
对25例子宫颈中低分化鳞状癌患者的阴道、宫颈外口和宫颈管涂片进行评估,以确定细胞团块的数量组成、团块大小及所含细胞类型,共计15万个细胞。该研究是为设计以单细胞层或单个细胞为重要因素的自动化细胞学设备所做的基线评估。评估表明,大多数细胞以实际或兼性团块形式出现,这些团块的分散或分解可产生更有利于机器读取的样本。
