PLT Scatter Cytogram
The PLT Scatter cytogram is the graphical representation of two light-scatter
measurements: the high-angle (5° to 15°), high-gain light scatter is plotted on the
x axis (A), and the low-angle (2° to 3°), high-gain light scatter is plotted on the y
axis (B).
Using the Mie theory of light scattering for homogeneous spheres, the low-angle
and high-angle light scatter signals for each cell are transformed into volume and
refractive index (n) values.
Methods
The Platelet PC histogram
of the two-dimensional
PLT analysis shows the
distribution of platelets
according to the refractive
index (platelet component
concentration [PC]).
