<p>This thin section preparation device is provided with: an epi-imaging data acquisition unit which performs imaging with epi-illumination to acquire imaging data; a diffusion imaging data acquisition unit which performs imaging with diffuse illumination to acquire imaging data; an exposed shape extraction unit which, on the basis of the imaging data acquired in the epi-imaging data acquisition unit, extracts the exposed shape of a biological sample exposed from the surface of an embedding block; an embedded shape extraction unit which, on the basis of the imaging data acquired in the diffuse imaging data acquisition unit, extracts the embedded shape of the biological sample embedded in the embedding block; and a control unit which compares the exposed shape extracted by the exposed shape extraction unit and the embedded shape extracted by the embedded shape extraction unit to determine the end of preliminary cutting.</p> |
