Image processing method and apparatus

An image processing apparatus, comprising:

• a memory operable to store computer-readable instructions;
• and
• a processor circuitry operable to read the computer-readable instructions, the processor circuitry when executing the computer-readable instructions is configured to:
• acquire a sample image, the sample image comprising an image obtained by image-capturing a sample within a preset optical waveband;
• colorate a first image corresponding to at least one preset wavelength within the preset optical waveband in the sample image, to obtain a pseudo-color image;
• perform region division on the sample image according to a difference in sample element types in the sample image to obtain a region division result, the sample element types comprising a recognition element type;
• determine an image region comprising the recognition element type from the sample image based on the pseudo-color image and the region division result;
• and
• perform a pathological sampling based on the determined image region.

A non-transitory machine-readable media, having instructions stored on the machine-readable media, the instructions configured to, when executed, cause a machine to:

• acquire a sample image, the sample image comprising an image obtained by image-capturing a sample within a preset optical waveband;
• colorate a first image corresponding to at least one preset wavelength within the preset optical waveband in the sample image, to obtain a pseudo-color image;
• perform region division on the sample image according to a difference in sample element types in the sample image to obtain a region division result, the sample element types comprising a recognition element type;
• determine an image region comprising the recognition element type from the sample image based on the pseudo-color image and the region division result;
• and
• perform a pathological sampling based on the determined image region.
