There are provided an image analyzing apparatus and an image analyzing
method where, in analyzing a microscopic image of a microbe or a cell
tissue, the manpower-independent observation and quantification are
executed so as to enhance the analyzing performance. The configuration of
the apparatus and the method is as follows: A frequency conversion
processing, such as Wavelet transformation, is executed toward the
microscopic image of the microbe or the cell tissue and, based on the
result obtained, the quantitative analysis is executed. The configuration
allows the automatic quantitative judgement to be executed concerning
factors such as the position, the number, the magnitude, the degree of
activity, the area ratio, the configuration, the direction, and the color.
This condition makes it possible to reduce a burden imposed on a person
who are in charge of the observation. Also, the noise can be eliminated,
which also enhances the analyzing performance. Moreover, the converted
regions are utilized for the analysis. This condition makes it possible to
execute the analysis with the amount of calculation that is smaller than
the resolution, thereby allowing the high-speed processing to be
implemented.
