In an image processing apparatus, a lower magnification image acquisition section acquires a whole specimen image at a lower magnification. An area division information memory stores, as area division information, the position information at a plurality of smaller areas into which a whole specimen is divided with a partially overlapped portion left. In accordance with the area division information, a high magnification image acquisition section sequentially acquires an image on substantially the some area as the divided area at a higher magnification. A positional displacement detection section detects the positional displacement of the acquired higher magnification image based on the lower magnification specimen image. A positional displacement correction section corrects the position of the respective high magnification image based on the detected positional displacement. An image joining section sequentially joins together the respective higher magnification images and creates a higher magnification image corresponding to a whole specimen.
