Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A cell-image analyzing apparatus includes: a cell imaging system having an imaging optical system and an image sensor, for imaging cells that exist in a vessel; a cell-image analyzer for automatically analyzing a predetermined characteristic quantity on the cells using a cell image captured via the cell imaging system, upon delimiting cell regions; and a cell-contour emphasizing system for automatically emphasizing contour portions of images of the cells that exist in the vessel, which is arranged at a shot position of the cell imaging system.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A cell-image analyzing apparatus comprising: a cell imaging system comprising (i) an imaging optical system for forming an optical image of cells that exist in a vessel, and (ii) an image sensor for capturing images of the cells that exist in the vessel by converting the optical image of the cells formed by the imaging optical system into electronic cell image data; a cell-contour emphasizing system which optically emphasizes contour portions of the cells…
