It is possible to efficiently perform data acquisition by simplifying an operation for positioning a small laboratory animal, and comparative observation of multiple images is straightforward. The invention provides a fluorescence observation apparatus including an image storage unit for storing a plurality of pairs of bright-field images and fluorescence images of a small laboratory animal in such a manner that relative positions thereof are aligned; a display unit for displaying the plurality of fluorescence images stored in the image storage unit so as to be arrayed in at least one direction; an outline extracting unit for extracting an outline shape of the small laboratory animal in each bright-field image; and an image-position adjusting unit for adjusting a display position of each associated fluorescence image so that the outline shapes of the small laboratory animal extracted by the outline extracting unit are aligned with each other in a direction orthogonal to the arrayed direction. |
