Abstract
Provided are a morphological cell parameter-based erythrocyte test method and digital holographic microscope used therein, and the morphological cell parameter-based erythrocyte test method includes performing modeling to create a 3D image of an erythrocyte to be tested and measuring morphological parameters of the erythrocyte based on the 3D image. The morphological cell parameter-based erythrocyte test method performs modeling of a 3D image for an erythrocyte to be tested and measures morphological parameters of the erythrocyte based on the 3D image. Therefore, time and effort consumed in measurement may be reduced, and accuracy of the measurement is excellent.
Claims11
A morphological cell parameter-based erythrocyte test method, comprising:
- generating an optical interference signal from an object beam passing through an erythrocyte to be tested and a reference beam emitted from a light source unit;
- creating a holographic image of the optical interference signal using an imaging unit;
- creating a three-dimensional (3D) image of the erythrocyte based on the holographic image;
- measuring morphological parameters of the erythrocyte through the 3D image;
- and
- determining a state of the erythrocyte based on the morphological parameters,
- wherein the morphological parameters includes a surface area of the erythrocyte, which is the sum of a projected surface area of the erythrocyte and a top-view surface area of the part corresponding to the erythrocyte of the 3D image.
