Abstract
A color chart where hue and saturation are changed variously with lightness kept constant is outputted onto a CRT monitor (or a color printer) beforehand. The display color corresponding to a specific wavelength of fluorescence in visual observation is specified on the color chart. The hue and saturation for the display color at that time are stored as color conversion parameters in a data processing unit. Thereafter, the color tone of the one with a specific wavelength of fluorescence among the luminance data of fluorescence of the observed specimen is corrected using the color conversion parameters. The resulting observed image is outputted to the CRT monitor (or color printer). This enables color reproduction of the observed image easily.
