Abstract: A cell detection method and a cell detection system capable of performing target cell detection satisfactorily without interference and reducing the time required for detection of target cells are provided. The cell detection method includes a separation step of step S1 to obtain a sample containing target cells by removing at least a part of the non-target cells from a biological sample including target cells and non-target cells based on a difference in forces acting on target cells and non-target cells; a concentration step of step S3 of obtaining a measurement sample having a target cell concentration increased from the sample containing target cells; a detection of step S4 of detecting target cells by subjecting the measurement sample to an imaging flow cytometer.

Abstract: A module installation unit is capable of installing a plurality of modules capable of accommodating a plurality of tubes containing a sample. A temperature adjusting unit heats and cools the sample in the tube of each module to the temperature required for nucleic acid amplification. An optical detection unit is used commonly by the plurality of modules installed in the module installation unit and which is capable of detecting the amplified nucleic acid of a sample subjected to nucleic acid amplification of a tube by regulating the temperature via the temperature adjusting unit for each module installed in the module installation unit. A moving unit moves the optical detecting unit and module installation unit relative to each other so as to detect the amplified nucleic acid of the sample in a tube of each of the plurality of modules installed in the module installation unit via the optical detection unit.
