Abstract

A fluorescent or luminescence image of at least part of a biological sample is imaged, then a transmission light image of at least part of the biological sample is imaged, and thereafter the fluorescent or luminescence image and the transmission light image are overlaid such that the identical area of the sample is coincided to display. The present invention allows detecting the accurate location of fluorescence or luminescence in a given part of the biological sample.
