Abstract
The present invention relates to a method of interpreting different antibiogram images in which it is possible to recognize a phenotype of bacterial resistance relative to antibiotics by comparing photographs using a photographic image bank of the reference antibiogram without any need to interpret them using the EUCAST or CA-SFM interpretation data; providing that for a given phenotype, there is available a collection of photographs of a plurality of bacteria of the same species and of the same phenotype.
