Laser scanning microscope, storage medium storing spectral data acquisition program, and spectral data acquisition method

摘要

A laser scanning microscope enables an observation of a specimen through emitting a laser beam onto the specimen marked by a plurality of fluorescent probes and receiving a fluorescent light back from the specimen corresponding to the emission, and comprises a laser source for generating a laser beam in an excitation wavelength corresponding to the plurality of fluorescent probes, a deflector unit for scanning the generated laser beam over an observation plane of the specimen, a dispersion unit for dispersing a fluorescent light from the specimen to extract it by an arbitrary wavelength interval, a spectral data acquisition condition setting unit for setting a condition for the dispersion unit acquiring a spectral data based on spectrum characteristics of the plurality of fluorescent probes, a dispersion control unit for controlling the dispersion unit based on the set spectral data acquisition condition.
