Digital Image DNA Cytometry: A Useful Tool for the Evaluation of Malignancy in Biliary Strictures

Background: Cytologic evaluation of the biliary tract strictures is nowadays widely used for distinguishing between benign and malignant lesions but remains a challenge for some problematic cases. Digital Image cytometry (DNA-cytometry) helps cytopathologists to resolve some unclear situations.
