With reference to pathological section scanner slide glass platform positioning precision measuring method process flow diagram shown in Figure 2, below by concrete steps, be elaborated:
S201, load characteristic slice on described slide glass platform, described characteristic slice comprises n unique point, and n is natural number.
In order to make follow-up data read work more accurate, more convenient, therefore can adopt characteristic slice to measure.The image that foreground and background colour contrast are larger can be set on described characteristic slice, and on described image, the corner of pattern can be sharper keen.For example, can using on white background and be printed on the section of black cross as characteristic slice.On described characteristic slice, get n unique point, n is natural number, for example, can get the center of described cross and 4 end points as unique point, amounts to 5 unique points.
By such scheme, can find out, in the present embodiment, described characteristic slice is on white background, to be printed on the section of black cross, usings the center of described cross and 4 end points as described 5 unique points, thus make the location of unique point and read more accurate, more convenient.
Be understandable that, described characteristic slice is not limited to be printed on the section of specific pattern, can adopt any section, as long as can in described section, get several points as unique point.Generally, the quantity of the unique point of getting is more, and the accuracy of measurement is just higher.
S202, control described slide glass platform and move to the first assigned address.
Described the first assigned address is not limited to specific position, as long as described picture pick-up device can obtain the image of the characteristic slice on described slide glass platform.Consider the middle part that normally described slide glass platform is placed in to workbench in actual use procedure, therefore, described the first assigned address can be certain position at described workbench middle part.
In concrete enforcement, described workbench and described pathological section scanner can be integrated, can be also that described pathological section scanner removably is fixed on described workbench.In test process, the position of described workbench and described pathological section scanner does not change.
S203, by being arranged on picture pick-up device on described pathological section scanner, obtain the first image of described characteristic slice, the relative position of described picture pick-up device and described pathological section scanner is constant, the positional information of described unique point before the resetting of the described slide glass platform of described the first recording image.
Described pathological section scanner carries picture pick-up device, and in test process, the relative position of described picture pick-up device and described pathological section scanner does not change.Described picture pick-up device is positioned at described slide glass platform top, sees through object lens and obtains from top to bottom the image that is carried in the characteristic slice on described slide glass platform.
In order to simulate better the situation of described pathological section scanner in practical application, in concrete enforcement, described picture pick-up device can be arranged on by the optical microscope of described pathological section scanner, and with described optical microscope towards identical direction.
