- The goal of this forum is to advance the scientific
discussion on the potential of cytometry in basic as
well as in clinical research with regard to predictive medicine,
biomolecular diagnostics and
consensus
development at an interdisciplinary level.
- Diseases are caused by molecular changes in cellular systems or
organs. Disease related processes can be determined at the cellular level
by cytometric methods. This permits disease detection (diagnosis) as
well as the prediction on future disease progression in individual
patients.
- Clinical cytometry addresses at present preferentially immunological
and hematological issues by cellular immunophenotyping
as major methodology e.g. in leukemia classification, hematopoietic
stem cell or kidney transplantation and HIV infection monitoring.
- Multiparameter measurements of cell functions in conjunction with
antibody binding and DNA determinations are important
for the detection and follow-up of fast developing clinical
processes like infectious, allergic, thrombotic or rheumatoid affections as
well as for the control of therapy.
- This concept forum will display short position statements on various
of these issues. The contributions are open for general scientific
discussion by E-mail. This includes the display of www-pages either in
direct form or by links for continuous update by authors and discussants.
