Image processing apparatus, image reading apparatus, image processing method and information storage medium

An image processing apparatus that processes a biological image generated by capturing an image of a biological specimen in an image reading apparatus, comprising:

• an acquisition unit configured to acquire identification information of the image reading apparatus;
• a generation unit configured to compare a standard image previously stored in a database with the biological image, derive a correction process to be added to the biological image in order to cause approximation to the standard image, and generate correction information indicating the correction process;
• and
• a registration unit configured to register the identification information of the image reading apparatus and the correction information in the database, in association with a type of biological tissue included in the biological image.

An image processing method that processes a biological image generated by capturing an image of a biological specimen in an image reading apparatus, comprising:

• acquiring identification information of the image reading apparatus;
• determining a type of biological tissue included in the biological image;
• and
• adding a correction process to the biological image in correspondence with the identification information of the image reading apparatus and the type of biological tissue.

A non-transitory information storage medium storing an image processing program that processes a biological image generating by capturing an image of a biological specimen in an image reading apparatus, the program causing a computer to execute:

• a step of acquiring identification information of the image reading apparatus;
• a step of determining a type of biological tissue included in the biological image;
• and
• a step of adding a correction process to the biological image in correspondence with the identification information of the image reading apparatus and the type of biological tissue.
