摘要:
A microscope system includes an observation optical system including an objective lens, an XY stage capable of moving an XY plane in an X-axis direction and an Y-axis direction, a first change unit configured to change a slant of the XY plane with respect to an optical axis direction of the objective lens, and a second change unit configured to change a slant of a slide placed on the XY stage with respect to the XY plane. Changing the slant of the XY plane by the first change unit is performed based on a first mark arranged on the XY plane at a position observable by the observation optical system. Changing the slant of the slide with respect to the XY plane by the second change unit is performed based on a second mark arranged on the slide.

An adapter configured to connect a microscope and an imaging unit, comprises a first member connected to the microscope and a second member connected to the imaging unit. The adapter further comprises a positioning unit for determining the microscope and the imaging unit to a predetermined positional relationship at a first accuracy, and a driving mechanism that changes a positional relationship between the first member and the second member at a second accuracy higher than the first accuracy, thereby changing the positional relationship between the microscope and the imaging unit determined by the positioning unit.

A slide used for observation by a microscope includes a label area configured to arrange a label, a cover glass area configured to arrange an observation object and a cover glass, a position reference mark arranged in a vacant area between the label area and the cover glass area and configured to specify a reference position of the slide and an X-axis direction and a Y-axis direction that are orthogonal to each other, and focus reference marks in which a predetermined pattern is repetitively arranged along two opposing sides of four sides of a periphery of the cover glass area, the focus reference marks being configured to specify a Z-axis direction orthogonal to the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction.

A microscope system comprises a microscope body, a stage configured to place a slide as an observation target and move in an X direction and a Y direction. The microscope system changes an arrangement of the placed slide with respect to the stage so as to cause a direction indicated by a mark provided on the slide placed on the stage to align with one of the X direction and the Y direction of the stage.

A microscope system comprises a microscope body, an image sensor mounted on the microscope body via mounting means and configured to capture an observation image under a microscope, and a stage that moves in an X-axis direction and a Y-axis direction, which are orthogonal to each other, and places a slide as an observation object and includes a mark used to indicate a stage reference position. The microscope system obtains positions of the stage in the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction, and detects, from an image captured by the image sensor, the stage reference position indicated by a mark provided on the stage and a slide reference position indicated by a mark provided on a slide placed on the stage. The microscope system manages the position of the stage by coordinates based on the slide reference position if the slide reference position is detected, and manages the position of the stage by coordinates based on the stage reference position if the slide reference position is not detected.

A microscope system includes an observation optical system including an objective lens, an imaging unit configured to capture an image of an observation object obtained by the observation optical system, and a stage movable in an X-axis direction, a Y-axis direction, and a Z-axis direction, on which a slide of the observation object is placed. The microscope system obtains position information defined by the X-axis direction, the Y-axis direction, and the Z-axis direction, and stores the obtained position information and the image of the observation object obtained by capturing the observation object by the imaging unit in a storage in association with each other.

A microscope system includes a microscope body, an XY stage mounted on the microscope body and including a stage configured to place a slide as an observation target and move in an X-axis direction and a Y-axis direction perpendicular to each other, and an XY two-dimensional scale plate fixed to the stage. The XY two-dimensional scale plate is provided with a first mark that provides axis information in the X-axis direction throughout a movable range of the stage in the Y-axis direction and a second mark that provides axis information in the Y-axis direction throughout a movable range of the stage in the X-axis direction, which are used to recognize X- and Y-coordinates of the stage.
摘要:
A slide on which an observation object by a microscope is placed, is provided. A first mark indicating a reference line along a first direction and a second mark indicating a specific position on an extension of the reference line along the first direction are separately arranged in a vacant area between a label area used to arrange a label and a cover glass area used to arrange the observation object and a cover glass. A position reference is provided by the specific position on the extension of the reference line along the first direction.
摘要:
A microscope system comprises a microscope body, an imaging unit connected to the microscope body and including an image sensor for capturing a microscopic image, and an XY stage configured to place a slide and move in an X direction and a Y direction. The microscope system changes an arrangement of the image sensor with respect to the microscope body so as to cause a direction defined by a pixel arrangement of the image sensor to align with one of the X direction and the Y direction of the XY stage.
