## Measurement of S-phase fraction by DNA flow cytometry is widely used in the analysis of human tumors. The calculation of fraction of S-phase cells is performed either by means of curve-fitting techniques or by more simple planimetric methods. Estimates by the latter often suffer from subjectivi
S-phase fraction (SPF), estimated in the flow cytometric DNA histogram, is a prognostic factor in breast cancer. There are, however, some inherent difficulties in the estimation of SPF, such as the influence of debris, aggregates, and normal cells. Most of the available SPF calculation principles tr
