Abstract
Flow cytometry enables rapid intraoperative diagnosis of nodal metastasis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Flow cytometric detection of cytokeratin-positive cells within lymph nodes correlates with their immunohistochemical detection, and its level of sensitivity is greater than that of conventional histologic staining and about equal to that of immunohistochemical staining.
