    Abstract: A medical image acquisition unit acquires a medical image obtained by imaging an observation target. A feature amount calculation unit calculates a feature amount of the observation target for each pixel of an image region of the medical image or for each divided region obtained by dividing the image region of the medical image into a specific size. A stage determination unit calculates a distribution index value which is an index value of the spatial distribution of the feature amount of each divided region, and determines the disease stage of the observation target based on the distribution index value.

    Abstract: Provided is a medical image processing system that can stably control the light emission amount of narrow-band light of a short wavelength in a case where the narrow-band light of the short wavelength is used for illumination of an observation target. A light source circuit emits specific narrow-band light of a short wavelength. An image sensor includes a first pixel group including a B pixel and a second pixel group including a G pixel. The B pixel has a higher sensitivity to the specific narrow-band light than the G pixel. The G pixel has a sensitivity to light in a green band and the specific narrow-band light. The light source control unit controls the light emission amount of the specific narrow-band light on the basis of a pixel value of the B pixel and a pixel value of the G pixel.

    Abstract: An endoscope operating method for an endoscope includes a step of applying light to an object through an endoscope tip of the endoscope. The object illuminated with the light is imaged through the endoscope tip. The object is magnified at a first magnification by optical zooming. The object is magnified at a second magnification by electronic zooming according to an image signal obtained by imaging the object. A value relationship between the first and second magnifications is changed according to an illumination type of the light. In case a total magnification for magnifying the object is equal to or less than an upper limit of the first magnification, the object is magnified by the optical zooming. In case the total magnification is more than the upper limit, the object is magnified by the optical zooming and the electronic zooming.

    Abstract: An endoscope system is provided with a light source unit for generating illumination light, an image sensor for imaging an object of interest irradiated with the illumination light, an image signal obtaining section, a calculated image signal generator, and an image generator. The image signal obtaining section obtains a B1 image signal corresponding to violet light and a B2 image signal corresponding to blue light. The calculated image signal generator generates a calculated image signal from the B1 and B2 image signals. The image generator generates an image in which one of the B1 image signal and the B2 image signal is assigned to a luminance channel or a green channel and the calculated image signal is assigned to a remaining channel.

    Abstract: An effective diagnosis region detection unit uses an effective diagnosis region detection model and detects an effective diagnosis region in which a non-target region of interest other than a region of interest is removed from an observation target, from a first medical image. The effective diagnosis region detection model is obtained by learning using first learning data including the first medical image and effective diagnosis region information regarding the effective diagnosis region. The region-of-interest detection unit detects the region of interest from the effective diagnosis region.

    Abstract: The imaging condition acquisition unit acquires a first imaging condition as an imaging condition for imaging an observation object by using an endoscope. The index-value and imaging-condition storage unit stores correspondence between the imaging condition, and, as an index value relating to a structure of an observation object, a plurality of index values including a first index value acquirable under the first imaging condition and a second index value non-acquirable under the first imaging condition but acquirable under a second imaging condition. The imaging condition extraction unit refers to the index-value and imaging-condition storage unit and extracts the second imaging condition. The guidance display unit displays guidance indicating that the second index value is acquirable under the extracted second imaging condition.
