Results are presented supporting the philosophy that malignancy can be detected by studying the size/density matrix of nuclei in cell populations to form the basis of an automated screening system. Some methods of cell dispersal and staining are briefly described. A preliminary assessment of the performance of the Cytoscreen is discussed.
