According to the invention, an endoscope system as a surgery assisting apparatus includes a surgery apparatus for performing treatment by abdominal operation procedure on a region to be treated in a body of a patient, and a luminal organ shape detecting apparatus used for assisting (supporting) the abdominal operation procedure. The luminal organ shape detecting apparatus is used as blood vessel position notifying means when procedure is performed by inserting a probe as a luminal organ insertion probe into a blood vessel, for example. This allows the luminal organ irrespective of the treatment to be easily and surely detected and enables a smooth procedure to be performed.

A detecting apparatus includes: a change-over switch for switching on/off display of a scope model on a liquid crystal monitor; a position calculating portion for calculating respective positions of source coils; a scope model generating portion for generating a scope model of an electronic endoscope based on the respective positions of the source coils calculated by the position calculating portion; and a selector for selectively outputting to the liquid crystal monitor a display-pause-time image stored in a display-pause-time image storing portion and a scope model image from the scope model generating portion; and a control portion for controlling each of these portions. The detecting apparatus thus displays an insertion shape of the endoscope at a timing as needed.

A driving block includes a plurality of magnetic-field generating elements and a driving signal generating section, and the magnetic field generated by the plurality of magnetic-field generating elements is detected by a plurality of magnetic-field detecting elements. A shape calculating block calculates a shape of an insertion portion of an endoscope based on a frequency component corresponding to a frequency of the driving signal in a detection signal detected by the plurality of magnetic-field detecting elements. Oscillation frequency of the reference clock for deciding the frequency of the driving signal is changeably set by the frequency setting section, and the reference clock with oscillation frequency set by the frequency setting section is supplied to both of the driving block and the shape calculating block.

A crystalline silicon thin film is formed by irradiating a silicon thin film with a laser beam. The laser beam is a continuous wave laser beam. An intensity distribution of the laser beam in a first region about a center of the intensity distribution is symmetric on an anterior side and a posterior side of the center. The intensity distribution in a second region about the center is asymmetric on the anterior side and the posterior side. The first region is from the maximum intensity of the laser beam at the center to an intensity half of the maximum intensity. The second region is at most equal to the half of the maximum intensity of the laser beam. In the second region, an integral intensity value on the posterior side is larger than on the anterior side.

The image reading device of the present invention includes (i) a sensor substrate which functions as a photoelectric transfer element having a photodetecting TFT and a pixel capacitor and (ii) a driving IC for applying a voltage to a gate electrode of the photodetecting TFT so as to drive the photodetecting TFT into an ON state or an OFF state. The driving IC applies a voltage, whose polarity is opposite to average polarity of a voltage making the photodetecting TFT in the OFF state, to the gate electrode of the photodetecting TFT in an arbitrary period. Thus, it is possible to provide the image reading device which can suppress variation of a photodetecting TFT property (resistance value) which is observed in a short time.
