More Information
Summary:A cell imaging apparatus (100) captures images of cells contained in a liquid specimen comprising: an image capture unit (50) including an objective lens (52), specimen cells (10a and 10b) each including an inner space (11) which is capable of holding a liquid specimen and which is elongated in one direction, the specimen cells arranged such that the inner spaces are aligned in a row in a longitudinal direction of the inner spaces, a drive unit (61, 62) that moves at least one of a)one or more specimen cells; and b)the objective lens; and a controller (70) that controls the drive unit to move at least one of: a)one or more specimen cells; and b)the objective lens in the longitudinal direction and controls the image capture unit to capture images of cells contained in a liquid specimen held in the inner space of each of the specimen cells at multiple image capture positions.
