CELL COUNTING METHOD, CELL COUNTING DEVICE, AND CELL COUNTING PROGRAM

摘要

To enable accurate counting the number of cultured cells without pulling apart cell clusters even if cells are aggregated densely to form three-dimensional cell clusters. An image of cultured cells is acquired, and from this image, an image of cell clusters and an image of individual cells are separated. Based on each of the image of cell clusters and the image of individual cells, the number of cells in the cell cluster and the number of individual cells are calculated.
