Title:
ENDOSCOPE SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/070474
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is an endoscope system that comprises a processor and that displays a biological substance feature amount distribution image obtained from a captured image of biological tissue. The processor uses color image data components of biological tissue illuminated by at least two light beams to calculate biological substance feature amounts of the biological tissue, such as the amount of hemoglobin and the oxygen saturation level of the hemoglobin, generates a feature amount distribution image indicating the distribution of the biological substance feature amounts, and controls the display of the feature amount distribution image in order to display the generated feature amount distribution image overlaid onto the image of the biological tissue. The processor extracts, from the biological substance feature amount distribution, an image of an unhealthy section distribution indicating the distribution of a plurality of different feature amount ranges. An image display device displays each extracted distribution image so that the images are overlaid onto the biological tissue image and are identifiable.
