====== Processed sample ====== A processed sample is a [[main:sample | sample]] which has been processed by ADCI software through the [[main:processqueue | ADCI Process Queue]]. When a sample is processed, metaphase images are segmented and dicentric chromosomes are counted at a variety of [[main:svmsigma | SVM sigma values]]. These dicentric counts are used when generating [[main:calibrationcurve | calibration curves]], in [[main:estimatedose | dose estimation]], and to generate [[main:plots | plots]]. Additionally, samples cannot be viewed in the [[main:metaphaseimgviewer | metaphase image viewer]] until they are processed. To learn how to process a sample, consult the [[main:sample | sample]] page.
