Abstract
According to some aspects, an image processing apparatus is provided. The image processing apparatus includes circuitry configured to receive at least two images of at least one cell. The at least two images are captured at different times. The circuitry is further configured to determine a motion amount of at least one intracellular structure identified within the at least one cell by comparing the at least two images and generate an indication of cell metabolism information associated with the at least one cell by relating at least one parameter of the motion amount to a degree of cell metabolism for the at least one cell based on reference information.
