First Claim
Patent Images
1. An imaging apparatus, comprising:
- an imaging unit capturing an image of a fluorescent sample;
a pixel shift unit changing a relative position of the imaging unit for the image;
an image correction unit correcting gray-scale levels of plural pieces of image data using histograms of the image data acquired by the imaging unit at different relative positions; and
an image combination unit combining the plural pieces of image data corrected by the image correction unit.

10. An image generating method, comprising:
-
changing a relative position of an imaging unit for an image of a fluorescent sample, capturing the image of the fluorescent sample at a plurality of different relative positions, and acquiring image data; generating a histogram for each relative position from the image data acquired for each relative position; correcting a gray-scale level of the image data using the histogram; and combining the image data whose gray-scale levels have been corrected. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13)
