Abstract

There is provided a system () and method () for improving ICC and/or ISH rare cell detection by lowering background noise and providing enhanced detection of rare cells (). In an embodiment, background noise for an ICC and/or an ISH rare cell detection assay is reduced and rare cell signaling is enhanced via feedback control. To accomplish the feedback control, an electronic control circuit () can direct a fluid delivery apparatus () to add an adjustment amount to account for fluid loss in the system () when fluid loss is indicated.
