Cytometry by time-of-flight (CyTOF) is a novel technology for the real-time analysis of single cells. CyTOF is a significant advance in fields including immunology, hematology, and oncology. It resolves multiple metal-conjugated probes per cell with minimal signal overlap, which maximizes the information obtained from each individual sample. CyTOF provides the ability to phenotypically and functionally profile cells from normal and diseased states.
