Abstract
A fluorescence lifetime measurement apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an illumination light generation unit that generates illumination light, a fluorescence photon detection unit that collects fluorescence photons generated by illuminating a sample including fluorescent molecules with the illumination light, a conversion unit that converts the collected fluorescence photons into a first clock signal and converts illumination light that does not pass through the sample into a second clock signal, a first module that analyzes a fluorescence lifetime of the collected fluorescence photons from the conversion unit, a control unit that designates a range of interest (ROI) of the sample from the first module, and a second module that analyzes a fluorescence lifetime of fluorescence photons corresponding to the ROI.
