Example of an analysis of a slide with epithelial antigen positive and negative cells: a) fluorescence intensity displayed as a dot plot with all cells in region 1 and the positive cells gated in region 2 (green region). b) The scanning stage proceeds from one positive event to the next stopping at each position of a positive event and allowing the observer to control whether it represents a specific membrane stained cell as shown in figure 1c. c) Three typical cells shown with green fluorescence. In the lower panel the identical cell is shown in panoptic staining indicated by the arrow.
