| 摘要 |
The invention relates to a sample imaging system (1) for transmitting an image of cells or tissues located in a culturing space (6) to data processing means (7), including a microscope unit (2) intended to be used in the culturing space (6), the microscope unit (2) comprising a frame, an object holder provided on the frame and allowing the cells or tissues to be held substantially immobile during a culturing period, an imaging means arranged on the frame for the optical imaging of the cells or tissues held on the object holder and an image capturing means capturing an image projected by the imaging means. Furthermore, the microscope unit (2) has a connecting means (4) being able to be led out of the culturing space (6) and providing electrical power supply to the microscope unit (2) and transmitting the captured image and the connecting means (4), which connecting means (4) is adapted to be connected to a control unit (3) intended to be used outside of the culturing space (6) and transmitting the captured image to the data processing means (7) and the control unit (3) comprises means adapted to suspend the electrical power supply of the microscope unit (2) with the exception of a period for capturing the image of the cells or tissues and transmitting the captured image to the control unit (3) via the connecting means (4). The invention also relates to a method for transmitting the image of the cells or tissues located in the culturing space (6) to the data processing means (7). |
