The invention provides an optical-scanning examination apparatus with a simple configuration, in which the resolution of acquired images can be freely changed and in which the fluorescence image intensity and examination depth can be adjusted to suit the purpose of examination. The optical-scanning examination apparatus includes a light source unit; a focusing lens for forming a first intermediate image of excitation light; an imaging lens; a first objective lens; an optical fiber bundle; a second objective lens; and an imaging unit for imaging return light that returns via the second objective lens, the optical fiber bundle, the first objective lens, and the imaging lens. In addition, a scanning mirror device, which is disposed at the first intermediate image position, is formed of a plurality of mirrors that simultaneously receive the first intermediate image and that can be selectively turned on and off.

An examination apparatus that can acquire detailed images from a specimen exhibiting dynamic behavior is provided. The examination apparatus comprises an imaging unit that images a specimen exhibiting dynamic behavior; a behavior detecting unit that detects the dynamic behavior of the specimen; an image storing unit that stores the dynamic behavior of the specimen detected by the behavior detecting unit and images of the specimen imaged by the imaging unit so as to be associated with each other; and a still-image extraction unit that extracts an image of the specimen when the specimen is substantially still based on the dynamic behavior of the specimen from the images of the specimen stored in the image storing unit.

An in-vivo examination apparatus in which the examination angle can be changed while keeping an examination site in focus to carry out accurate in-vivo examination is provided. The in-vivo examination apparatus includes a stage on which a living organism is mounted, a measurement head that irradiates the living organism on the stage with light emitted from a light source and detects light returning from the living organism, and a rotation mechanism that rotates the measurement head about a fixed point on the stage.

An illumination system for microscopy includes a light source, a first spectral element dispersing light from the light source, a reflecting member selectively reflecting light dispersed by the first spectral element, a second spectral element combining light reflected by the reflecting member, a dichroic mirror, an objective lens, and an image sensor. The first spectral element is placed at the front focal point of a first lens, the reflecting member is placed at a position where the back focal point of the first lens coincides with the front focal point of a second lens, and the second spectral element is placed at the back focal point of the second lens.

A microscope apparatus includes an objective lens, an imaging lens, a pupil relay lens, and an image relay lens. The primary image of a specimen is formed between the imaging lens and the pupil relay lens, and the image of the pupil of the objective lens is projected between the pupil relay lens and the image relay lens so that a pupil modulator is disposed at the position of the projected pupil image. This arrangement makes it possible to produce pupil modulation, observe various specimens, and set the optimum position of an eyepoint.

A stereomicroscope is equipped with an objective lens, a variable magnification optical system having an optical axis common with that of the objective lens, a splitting optical system splitting emergent light from the variable magnification optical system into a plurality of optical paths, and an eyepiece disposed in at least one of the optical paths, having a diameter larger than the interpupil distance of an observer. Thus, the stereomicroscope has advantages that, with a simple structure and easy adjustment, many people can make observations, the mountings of photographic and TV devices are possible, the directions in which plural observers see through the microscope can be changed, and eyestrain is difficult to occur which may be caused by the difference in magnification between the images of a bilateral observation optical system.

A high performance objective lens system for microscopes comprising a plurality but a very small number of lens elements at least one of which is designed as an axial GRIN lens element.
摘要:
Tumor tissue or the like that exists at a deep portion of a living organism far from an internal wall of a body cavity is observed. A biological observation apparatus (1) is provided, which includes an inserted portion (2) that has a small-diameter distal end portion (2a) to be inserted into a body of a specimen (A), such as a mammal or the like, and that emits straight-line laser light (L) in a radial direction from the distal end portion (2a); and an image capturing portion (17) that is disposed outside of the body of the specimen (A) and that captures fluorescence generated from the specimen (A) due to the laser light (L) emitted from the inserted portion (2), wherein the inserted portion (2) is provided with a scanner (8) that scans the laser light (L) in a circumferential direction.
摘要:
The present invention is a virtual-slide specimen image acquisition apparatus that captures images by dividing a specimen into a plurality of sections, having a conveying device in which a plurality of specimens can be arranged and that conveys the plurality of the arranged specimens in a first direction by a distance corresponding to the length of a side along the first direction in one of the divided sections and at first time intervals and an image capturing device that has an image capturing portion for capturing images of the specimens magnified at a predetermined magnification and that scans the specimens conveyed to a predetermined position in a second direction, by a predetermined length at second time intervals, such that the image capturing portion captures images of all of the sections that are positioned identically in the first direction and that are positioned differently in the second direction perpendicular to the first direction.
