Abstract

A specimen observation apparatus includes: a light source; an illumination optical system; a stage; an imaging optical system; and a reflection member disposed at a position opposed to the imaging optical system across the stage. The illumination optical system is disposed so as to apply illumination light from the light source to a specimen. The imaging optical system is disposed at a position at which the illumination light that is transmitted through the specimen and thereafter reflected by the reflection member to be transmitted through the specimen again enters, and is configured to form an optical image of the specimen. The optical image is formed in a state in which a position of the specimen and a focus position of the imaging optical system are different from each other.
