Embodiment 1

[0058] The method according to the invention for visually displaying an image of an unstained keratinocyte sample without the use of a liquid dye was tested for the accuracy of the visual assessment. Keratinocyte samples were collected from the skin of three women with different skin conditions. Utilize Adobe Photoshop (registered trademark) of Adobe System Company, according to the above-mentioned color adjustment processing of the present invention, each unstained keratinocyte sample image is displayed (see figure 1 ), and the image is RGB-converted using the above-mentioned RGB conversion chart, thereby obtaining an image displayed in pseudo-color (see image 3 ). Next, each keratinocyte sample was stained with gentian violet and brilliant green, and a magnified image picture thereof was acquired as in the conventional method. Tests were performed on images displayed in pseudo-color and enlarged image pictures dyed into gentian violet and brilliant green (see Patent Docum...

Embodiment 2

[0063] In Example 1, the number of people to be tested was increased to 104, and the measurement accuracy of the present invention was specified. Using Mitani's WinROOF to measure the area of ​​keratinocytes, and according to the standardized evaluation system, three trained evaluators (evaluators) visually evaluated the degree of exfoliation and arrangement regularity on a 5-point scale and a 4-point scale .

[0064] Between the magnified image picture of the present invention and the magnified image picture of the conventional method, correlation coefficients (r) in terms of arrangement regularity, area, and exfoliation degree of keratinocytes were obtained as 0.932, 0.966, and 0.945, respectively. These correlation coefficients demonstrate significant and strong correlations between images. Considering that these images are based on different keratinocyte samples collected from adjacent areas, it can be considered that these images exhibit a high degree of compatibility, i...

Abstract

The invention provides a method and computer for identifying keratinocytes. The method for identifying keratinocyte images by using the computer comprises the following steps: reading the image which shows the state of the keratinocytes of the skin into a storage device by an image shooting device which is connected with the computer, wherein the image serves as the enlarged image picture; reading the enlarged image picture by a central processing unit, and converting the RGB (red green blue) values of each pixel by the conversion table or image data stored in the storage device; creating pseudo-color image data by the central processing unit according to the converted RGB values, developing the pseudo-color image data on an image memory, and displaying the pseudo-color image data on display equipment.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of the invention patent application with the application number 200780051396.0, the international application number PCT / JP2007 / 052647, the application date is February 14, 2007, and the invention title is "Method for Supporting Identification of Keratinocytes". technical field [0002] The present invention relates to a color adjustment method for an image. Specifically, the present invention relates to a method for displaying an unstained image of corneocytes and the like in a pseudo-color manner, whereby the image can be identified. Background technique [0003] Skin conditions are constantly changing due to variable factors such as seasonal factors and physical conditions, and are also changed as a result of skin care such as application of cosmetics. Therefore, an important factor is the proper selection of cosmetics according to this change for the purpose of anti-aging and maintaining the aesthetic appearance of the ...
