PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a microscope control device and an area determination method which suppress an estimated error of a defocus amount and can suppress a load necessary for defocus amount arithmetic processing. SOLUTION: The microscope control device includes: an evaluation value calculation unit for calculating an evaluation value for evaluating the presence or absence of a sample for each local area constituting one of a pair of phase difference images of the sample imaged by a microscope; and an area determination unit for determining an area in which the sample is imaged in the one of the phase difference images based on the calculated evaluation value.
