Abstract

An analyzer analyzes a specimen, and generates analysis result. The analysis result includes displaying information used for displaying a graphical analysis result. The analyzer allows to specify a selection criteria of analysis result and select the analysis results by specified selection criteria. The analyzer displays graphical analysis results based on the displaying information included the analysis results selected by the selecting part.

Claims

1. An analyzer for analyzing specimens comprising:

an analyzing part for analysing a specimen and generating an analysis result which includes displaying information used for displaying a graphical analysis result;

a memory for storing the analysis results generated by the analyzing part;

a specifying part for specifying selection criteria of analysis results;

a selecting part for selecting analysis results stored in the memory by the specified selection criteria;

a display part; and

a display controlling part for displaying graphical analysis results on the display part based on the displaying information included the analysis results selected by the selecting part.

2. The analyzer according to claim 1, wherein

the analyzing part comprises:

a measuring part for performing predetermined measurements of a specimen and obtaining measuring data; and

a preparing part for preparing the displaying information of the specimen based on the measurement data obtained by the measuring part,

wherein the displaying information is the graphical analysis result.

3. The analyzer according to claim 1, wherein

the display controlling part comprises a preparing part for preparing graphical analysis result based on the displaying information, and is configured so as to display the graphical analysis result prepared by the preparing part on the display part.

4. The analyzer according to claim 1, wherein

the graphical analysis result is a scattergram or a graph.

5. The analyzer according to claim 4, wherein

the specimen contains particles, and the scattergram or graph represents particle size distribution.

6. The analyzer according to claim 1, further comprising:

a selection receiving part for receiving selection of at least one of graphic analysis result displayed on the display part;

an instruction receiving part for receiving instruction to process the analysis result related to the selected graphic analysis result; and

a process executing part for executing the process which is instructed.

7. The analyzer according to claim 6, wherein

the analysis result further includes numeric analysis result, and

the display controlling part is configured so as to display on the display part a plurality of graphic analysis results related to a plurality of specimens and numeric analysis result related to the selected graphic analysis result when selection of graphic analysis result has been received by the selection receiving part.

8. The analyzer according to claim 1, wherein

the specifying part is configured so as to specify at least selection criteria for selecting analysis results related to specimens collected from same person.

9. The analyzer according to claim 1, wherein

the display controlling part is configured so as to display the graphical analysis results aligned in a predetermined order on the display part.

10. An information processing device comprising:

an obtaining part for obtaining a measurement result of a specimen from a measuring device;

an analyzing part for analysing the obtained measurement result and generating an analysis result which includes displaying information used for displaying a graphical analysis result;

a memory for storing the analysis results generated by the analyzing part;

a specifying part for specifying selection criteria of analysis results;

a selecting part for selecting analysis results stored in the memory by the specified selection criteria;

a display part; and

a display controlling part for displaying graphical analysis results on the display part based on the displaying information included the analysis results selected by the selecting part.

11. The information processing device according to claim 10, wherein
