STUDY DESIGN: From one case of aneuploid DNA breast cancer, 18 subsets made up of 152-1,524 for the whole population of undamaged nuclei and made up of 74-735 epithelial nuclei had DNA measured. DNA ploidy type and five DNA ploidy indices, allowing DNA ploidy histogram interpretation were evaluated on each population. RESULTS: Three hundred nuclei were always sufficient for DNA typing, whereas reliable results for DNA ploidy indices required at least 750 nuclei. CONCLUSION: To DNA measure the above number of nuclei, fully automated image cytometry DNA ploidy measurements are required.
