Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
In order to acquire, in a short period of time, a high-contrast image covering a wide range of area of a culture vessel and properly manage the quality of a biological sample, this cell image acquisition device (1) is provided with: a first imaging unit (3) for imaging light from a cell (X) inside the culture vessel (2); a second imaging unit (4) for imaging a narrower visual field range at a higher resolution than with the first imaging unit; an area-of-interest setting unit (6) for setting one or more areas of interest that are narrower than a first visual field range which has been determined, as a result of analysis of a first image of the first visual field range acquired by the first imaging unit, to have a cell therein; and an imaging condition setting unit (7) for setting conditions for imaging to be performed by the first imaging unit on the basis of second images acquired, by the second imaging unit, of the respective areas of interest set by the area-of-interest setting unit, wherein a third image is acquired by the first imaging unit on the basis of the imaging conditions set by the imaging condition setting unit.
