A method for determining a defect during sample inspection involving charged particle beam imaging transforms a target charged particle microscopic image and its corresponding reference charged particle microscopic images each into a plurality of feature images, and then compares the feature images against each other. Each feature image captures and stresses a specific feature which is common to both the target and reference images. The feature images produced by the same operator are corresponding to each other. A distance between corresponding feature images is evaluated. Comparison between the target and reference images is made based on the evaluated distances to determine the presence of a defect within the target charged particle microscopic image.
