METHOD FOR PROCESSING AND DISPLAYING MULTI-CHANNEL SPECTRAL HISTOGRAMS AND SYSTEMS FOR SAME

Aspects of the present disclosure include methods for processing and displaying multi-channel spectral histograms. Methods according to certain embodiments include obtaining a histogram of cytometric data for a sample, wherein the cytometric data comprises measurements from particles irradiated in the sample flowing in a flow stream, generating the representation of the histogram by encoding the histogram, the encoding comprising: assigning a color to each histogram value in the representation of the histogram, and duplicating each color corresponding to each histogram value in the representation of the histogram a predetermined number of times, and using the representation of the histogram for displaying the histogram. Systems for practicing the subject methods are also provided. Non-transitory computer readable storage mediums are also described.
