Abstract: Provided are a captured image evaluation apparatus, a captured image evaluation method, and a captured image evaluation program capable of evaluating a thickness and a density of stacked cultured cells in a short imaging time. The captured image evaluation apparatus includes: an image acquisition section 52 that acquires captured images obtained by imaging a subject under a condition in which a numerical aperture of an objective lens is changed; a thickness estimation section 53 that estimates a thickness of the subject on the basis of a low NA captured image obtained under a condition in which the numerical aperture of the objective lens is relatively small; and a density estimation section 54 that estimates a density of the subject on the basis of a high NA captured image obtained under a condition in which the numerical aperture of the objective lens is relatively large.

Abstract: By moving at least one of a culture container having a plurality of wells or an imaging optical system that forms an image of an observation target in each of the wells, an observation position in the culture container is scanned to observe the observation target. In a case where an auto-focus control for each observation position is performed, a start timing of the auto-focus control for each observation position is switched on the basis of a boundary portion between the adjacent wells in a scanning direction of the observation position.

Abstract: There are provided a microscope apparatus, an observation method, and a microscope apparatus-control program that can more efficiently perform auto-focus control and can shorten an imaging time in a case where a culture vessel is to be scanned by an image forming optical system and the auto-focus control is to be performed at each observation position. Focus information of a culture vessel is detected by a first displacement sensor and a second displacement sensor while a stage is moved to a scanning measurement position from an initial set position, and an auto-focus control unit performs auto-focus control at every observation position on the basis of the focus information in a case where the stage has been moved to the scanning measurement position.
