A kind of endoscope system and its imaging method

Abstract

An endoscope system, comprising: a light source part; a light source control part for controlling the light source part to provide the light required for ordinary light imaging, and controlling the light source part to provide the light required for special light imaging; an endoscope , comprising an insertion part that can be inserted into the living body and at least one sensor for image signal acquisition; a processor for the first image collected according to the at least one sensor when the light source part provides the light required for ordinary light imaging The signal generates a first color image, and when the light source part provides the light required for special light imaging, a second color image is generated according to the second image signal collected by the at least one sensor, and the first color image and the second color image are combined. an image composite third color image; and a display for displaying the third color image. The user can identify the area and intensity of the special light imaged by the above endoscope system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an endoscope system and an imaging method thereof. Background technique [0002] In the medical field, it is more and more common to use an endoscope system for diagnosis. Doctors can use the endoscope system to observe the tissues inside the living body. Specifically, the endoscope system generally has a structure that can be inserted into the living body. After the structure is inserted into the living body through the oral cavity or other natural orifices, or a small incision made by surgery, this part of the structure is obtained. The image information inside the living body is transmitted and displayed on the monitor. [0003] Typically, endoscopic systems are capable of ordinary light imaging. As the name suggests, ordinary light imaging is to image the inside of a living body illuminated by ordinary light or white light. For example, an endoscope system sequentially applies three colors of light beams R, G, and B to th...

Problems solved by technology

For example, when special light imaging technology is used to image tissues related to endometrial cancer, the sentinel lymph node has a strong contrast with the surrounding normal tissue in the special light image obtained (for example, one is processed to appear approximately white, and the other is processed to display It is approximately black), so it can be easily distinguished, but it is precisely because of the strong contrast between cancerous tissue and normal tissue in the special light image (for example, one of the above-mentioned ones is processed and displayed as basically white, and the other is displayed as white). processing appears to be essentially black), so that the special light image also lacks structural and morphological details of the tissue itself
