Abstract
A cell analysis system according to the present disclosure includes a motion information extracting unit and a motion characteristics calculating unit. The motion information extracting unit extracts motion information arising from a movement of ions or molecules across a cell membrane, out of a cell image obtained from imaging a cell in time series. The motion characteristics calculating unit calculates motion characteristics of the motion information.
Claims16
A cell analysis system comprising:
- an imaging apparatus configured to capture a first cell image and a second cell image;
- and
- a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a cell analysis program which operates an information processing apparatus to execute:
- extracting first motion information from the first cell image and second motion information from the second cell image, wherein the first cell image and the second cell image are obtained from imaging a cell in time series;
- calculating a first motion characteristic from the first motion information and a second motion characteristic from the second motion information;
- and
- evaluating a movement of at least one ion or molecule across a cell membrane of the cell based on a difference between the first motion characteristic and the second motion characteristic.
