Original Abstract Submitted
The automatic analyzer includes a mechanism for analyzing a specimen with respect to each of multiple analysis types, a processor which receives specimen analysis request information based on a user input, and controls the mechanism to execute an analytical operation in accordance with a designated analysis type for processing the corresponding analysis, and a storage device which stores evaluation setting information for prioritizing the analysis request information that involves an order of the analysis. The evaluation setting information (score table ) has an evaluation value (score) that reflects priority in the analysis order set on each of multiple information elements relating to the analysis. The multiple information elements include at least a specimen type and the analysis type. The processor calculates the evaluation value set on each of the received multiple analysis request information based on the evaluation setting information, and determines an order of priority of analysis processing.
