PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a needle-shaped body inspection apparatus and a needle-shaped body inspection apparatus, capable of measuring strength differences for each section in a needle-shaped body.SOLUTION: The needle-shaped body inspection apparatus for inspecting a needle-shaped body, a three-dimensional structure in one form of implementation includes a needle-shaped body holding mechanism for holding a needle-shaped body to be inspected; an inspection needle to be in contact with the held needle-shaped body; and an inspection needle control mechanism for detecting, recording, and holding a load exerted on the inspection needle. The needle-shaped body inspection apparatus can measure strength differences for each section in the needle-shaped body, by measuring a load exerted on a section at which the needle-shaped body and the inspection needle are in contact with each other and controlling the contact section between the needle-shaped body and the inspection needle.
