Using flowViz to visualize flow cytometry data

Bioinformatics. 2008 Mar 15;24(6):878-9. doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/btn021. Epub 2008 Feb 1.

Abstract

Automated analysis of flow cytometry (FCM) data is essential for it to become successful as a high throughput technology. We believe that the principles of Trellis graphics can be adapted to provide useful visualizations that can aid such automation. In this article, we describe the R/Bioconductor package flowViz that implements such visualizations.

Availability: flowViz is available as an R package from the Bioconductor project: http://bioconductor.org
