ABSTRACT:
A microscope system comprises a microscope including a motorized stage on which is mounted a container containing a specimen and which can adjust the position of the container, a scanner scanning laser light radiated onto the specimen, an objective lens focusing the scanned laser light, an image-acquisition unit acquiring a specimen image by detecting fluorescence produced in the specimen, and a dark box containing these components; a storage unit storing the mounting position of the container on the motorized stage; an image-acquisition-position setting unit setting acquisition positions of partial images of the inside of the container, on the basis of the stored mounting position of the container; a control section controlling the microscope so as to acquire the partial images for each container on the basis of the set acquisition positions; and a map-image generating section arranging the partial images to generate a map image.
