Abstract
An analyzing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a light source apparatus; an image sensor that generates color image data by capturing an image of biological tissue illuminated by light generated by the light source apparatus; an indicator calculation unit that calculates an indicator X that indicates a feature amount Q of the biological tissue, based on the color image data; and a feature amount acquisition unit that acquires the feature amount Q based on the indicator X. The feature amount acquisition unit includes a contribution calculation unit that calculates a contribution C based on at least two colors of single-color image data included in the color image data, the contribution C of scattering on a spectral characteristic of the biological tissue. Also, the feature amount acquisition unit acquires the feature amount Q based on the indicator X and the contribution C.
