Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/187637
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
This endoscope light emitting device (1) is a light emitting device for use in a fluorescence imaging method. The endoscope light emitting device is provided with a solid light emitting element (2) and a wavelength converter (3) comprising a first phosphor (4) that emits first wavelength-converted light (7). The first wavelength-converted light has light components over a wavelength range of at least 700 nm to 800 nm. This endoscope (11) is provided with the endoscope light emitting device. This fluorescence imaging method uses the endoscope light emitting device or the endoscope, and comprises the steps of: administering a fluorescent drug to a subject; and irradiating the subject in whom the fluorescent drug has made contact with the first wavelength-converted light 7.
