Abstract:
Disclosed is a cell imaging method including: forming a light sheet with respect to a flow cell; causing a measurement sample containing a plurality of cells to flow in the flow cell; and receiving lights generated from the plurality of cells passing through the light sheet, by an imaging device via an element configured to extend a depth of focus, and taking images of the plurality of cells by the imaging device.

Claim (Index 16):
A cell imaging apparatus comprising:\n a flow cell configured to cause a sample containing a plurality of cells to flow therein; a light source; an irradiation optical system configured to form, with respect to the flow cell, a light sheet from light emitted from the light source; a condensing optical system having an element configured to extend a depth of focus, the condensing optical system being configured to condense lights generated from the plurality of cells flowing in the flow cell; and an imaging device configured to receive lights that have been generated from the plurality of cells and condensed by the condensing optical system, and take images of the plurality of cells.
