Abstract[English] The invention relates to a method for detecting colonies of microorganisms in a biological sample arranged in a solid culture medium, the method being implemented by a detection system comprising at least one incubator, an analysis unit, and at least one automated image capture system, the method comprising a first phase of detecting and counting objects, in the field of view of the image capture system, exhibiting growth, and a second phase applied only to those samples deemed to be negative in the first phase of the method, the second phase being based on anomaly detection applied to at least the last image acquired in the incubation sequence.[French] L'invention porte sur un procédé de détection de colonies de microorganismes dans un échantillon biologique déposé dans un milieu de culture solide, ledit procédé étant mis en œuvre par un système de détection comprenant au moins un incubateur, une unité d'analyse, et au moins un système automatisé de capture d'images, ledit procédé comprenant une première phase de détection et de comptage des objets, dans le champ de vue du système de capture d'images, présentant une croissance, et une deuxième phase appliquée uniquement aux échantillons considérés négatifs dans la première phase du procédé, ladite deuxième phase étant basée sur une détection d'anomalie appliquée à au moins, la dernière image acquise pendant la séquence d'incubation.
