  • Imaging device
    Patent number: 11385193
    Abstract: An object of the invention is to easily acquire images of a position corresponding among a plurality of sample sections in an imaging device that acquires images of the plurality of sample sections. The imaging device according to the invention generates a cursor for specifying a first observation region and a contour portion of a first sample section, and superimposes the cursor on a contour portion of a second sample section so as to calculate coordinates of a second observation region of the second sample section.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 10, 2018
    Date of Patent: July 12, 2022
    Assignee: Hitachi High-Tech Corporation

  • Imaging device
    Patent number: 11239050
    Abstract: An object of the invention is to easily acquire an image of a position corresponding between each section in an imaging device that acquires an image of a plurality of sample sections. The imaging device according to the invention calculates, according to a correspondence relationship between a characteristic point and a first observation region in a first sample section, coordinates of a second observation region of a second sample section, and generates an observation image at the calculated coordinates (see FIG. 7B).
