Abstract
Methods and systems for efficient contour and gating in flow cytometry are provided. Event data is compressed to reduce the number of points needed to represent polygon contours for the event data. Selection of a level within the contour then causes the generation of a gate. This allows limited resource devices, such as touchscreen wireless devices, to render and gate flow cytometry data in a resource efficient manner.
