ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an image analysis process for measuring the signal on biochips organized into one or several blocks each comprising a large number of spots each composed of at least one probe, the said process being characterized in that it comprises the following steps:a deposit is made with a constant pitch, the spots appearing in the form of a periodic and regular signal;this periodicity property is used to identify the position of the blocks and the spots, this periodicity being searched for on projections of the image in the x and y directions.
