Title:
CELL EVALUATION DEVICE, METHOD, AND PROGRAM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/008682
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a cell evaluation device, a method, and a program that make it possible to easily explore an area to be observed in a cardiomyocyte without requiring special preparation or the like. A cell evaluation device is provided with: a movement detection unit that detects movement of a cultured cardiomyocyte in each partial area of a plurality of observation fields on the cultured cardiomyocyte; a movement amount calculation unit that calculates the movement amount of each detected movement; a pulsation information calculation unit that calculates pulsation information that is information related to a feature amount of the pulsation of the cultured cardiomyocyte on the basis of each of the calculated movement amounts; an evaluation value calculation unit that calculates each of evaluation values that are calculated on the basis of the pulsation information and that correspond to the plurality of observation fields; and an observation field determination unit that determines an observation field to be observed on the cultured cardiomyocyte on the basis of the evaluation values.
