Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, in the case of the conventional device, the operator needs complicated instruction operations to display the above-mentioned support information on the monitor, and there is a problem that the identification cannot be performed smoothly.
In addition, in the endoscope system proposed above, no consideration is given to presenting the operator with any support information for identifying the lesion.
Existing devices have not successfully provided differential support to the surgical operator

no. 1 Embodiment approach

[0037] figure 1 It is a block diagram of the endoscope apparatus of 1st Embodiment.

[0038] The endoscope apparatus 1 includes an endoscope 11, a video processor 12, and a monitor 13 as a display device. The endoscope 11 and the video processor 12 are connected by a cable 14 such as a general-purpose cable. The video processor 12 and the monitor 13 are connected by a cable 15 . The endoscope device 1 has a plurality of observation modes.

[0039] The endoscope 11 has an elongated insertion portion 11a, and an operation portion 11b connected to the base end portion of the insertion portion 11a. The front end portion 11a1 of the insertion portion 11a is provided with an unillustrated illumination window and an observation window. Illumination light is emitted to the subject from the illumination window, and return light from the subject enters the observation window. A bent portion 11a2 is provided on the base end side of the front end portion 11a1 of the insertion portion ...

no. 2 Embodiment approach

[0095] In the first embodiment, whether or not the front end of the insertion part is at rest is judged based on the endoscopic image obtained by using the imaging device, thereby judging whether or not the operator is being identified. The movement of the front end portion 11a1 of the insertion portion 11a determines whether or not the operator is being identified based on the detection result.

[0096] The endoscope apparatus according to this embodiment has the same configuration as the endoscope apparatus 1 according to the first embodiment, and the same reference numerals are assigned to the same constituent elements and descriptions thereof are omitted, and only different configurations will be described.

[0097] Figure 8 It is a block diagram of the endoscope apparatus of 2nd Embodiment. Figure 9 It is a block diagram showing the configuration related to image processing of the processor 12 .

[0098] An acceleration sensor 19 is provided in the front end portion 1...

no. 3 Embodiment approach

[0109] In the first embodiment, it is determined whether or not the distal end portion 11a1 of the insertion portion 11a is stationary based on the endoscopic image acquired by the imaging device 18, thereby determining whether or not the operator is being identified. In the second embodiment, The movement of the front end portion 11a1 of the insertion portion 11a is detected by the sensor, and whether the operator is being identified is determined based on the detection result. However, in this embodiment, the surgical operation is determined based on the setting operation of the observation state in the operation portion 11b. is under identification.

[0110] The endoscope apparatus according to this embodiment has the same configuration as the endoscope apparatus 1 according to the first embodiment, and the same reference numerals are assigned to the same constituent elements and descriptions thereof are omitted, and only different configurations will be described.

Abstract

The video processor (12) as an image processing device has: an identification state determination unit (32), which determines whether the endoscope (11) is whether the operator is in the discrimination state of discriminating the lesion in the observation object of the endoscope (11); Identification of lesions.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image processing device, in particular to an image processing device for endoscopy. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, endoscopes have been widely used in the medical field and the like. By using an endoscope, for example, an operator can observe an endoscopic image displayed on a display device inside a subject, thereby discovering and identifying a lesion, and performing treatment on the lesion using a treatment instrument. [0003] The operator observes the endoscopic image displayed on the display device to determine whether there is a lesion in the subject. The operator moves the insertion part of the endoscope to determine whether there is a lesion, and when a lesion is found, the operator stops the distal end of the insertion part, observes an endoscopic image, and identifies the lesion, that is, determines the disease. [0004] There are also cases where the operator sufficiently observes the end...
