APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING AND TESTING A BIOLOGICAL SPECIMEN

摘要

A device for analyzing liquid body-specimens, the device comprising at least one specimen handling station for obtaining preparation on a carrying media, and an imaging station fitted with an optical image capturing device for analyzing the preparation. A carriage with a carrying media receptacle rotatably retains the carrying media and is displaceable between a loading position and an unloading position with respective positions at the stations. An incremental displacement mechanism for displacing at least one of the carrying media and an imaging device so as to obtain at least one consecutive image of the preparation.
