Correlation of DNA Ploidy with Progression of Cervical Cancer
Figure 2
Showing representative histograms of flow-cytometric analysis of DNA
contents of cervical smears in different stages of dysplasia. In each sample,
25,000 events were counted at FL2-A following staining with propidium iodide 50 μg/mL for 30 minutes in dark at 4°C.
Y-axis showing number of cells and X axis represents DNA ploidy. (a) Showing a
diploid peak of DNA. (b) Showing a near diploid aneuploidy. (c) Showing a hyperaneuploidy from severe dysplasia patient. DI shows DNA index.
