Title:
IMAGING APPARATUS AND IMAGING METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/159821
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided are an imaging apparatus and an imaging method that are capable of acquiring higher quality images. According to the present invention, a beam generation unit (11) generates first and second probe beams from laser light. Each of the first and second probe beams comprises a plurality of interference beams different in beat frequency. A beam emitting unit (12) emits the first and second probe beams separately in a sub-scanning direction. Sub-scanning is carried out while positions on a sample (G) irradiated with the first and second probe beams are shifted from each other by moving the sample (G) within a micro flow path (55). An observation image is generated by stacking the images of the sample (G) acquired by the irradiation with the first and second probe beams.
