Method of analyzing particles in a fluid sample.

摘要

A method for analyzing particles and particularly sediments of urine is accomplished by distributing the sample over an extended area. A plurality of optical still images is taken of the sample, with each image representing a different portion of the area. Each optical image is converted into an electronic image, with the images of the particles in the electronic images. The images of the particles are extracted from the electronic images. The images of the particles are displayed in an ordered array by classes of visually discernible characteristics.
