Abstract

Software strictly dedicated to DNA tumour measurement was previously developed, providing an automatic sorting of cellular elements based on a multiparametric analysis. Prospective research now focuses on the simplification of the sorting procedure. Mathematical morphology was used for pre-elimination of debris and aggregates. The results were compared to those obtained with multiparametric analysis. It is concluded that mathematical morphology is a promising tool.
