    Abstract: An endoscope apparatus includes: an imaging device; a light source device; an illumination light control circuit; a first processing circuit; and a second processing circuit. The light source device emits first support illumination light in a first time period. The first processing circuit acquires a first support image obtained with the first support illumination light. The second processing circuit extracts first diagnosis support information on the basis of the first support image. The light source device emits second support illumination light being as a result of dimming control on the basis of the first diagnosis support information in a second time period. The first processing circuit acquires a second support image with the second support illumination light. The second processing circuit acquires support display information on the basis of the second support image. The first processing circuit executes image processing, based on the support display information, on the display image.

    Abstract: An endoscope apparatus includes: an imaging device; a light source device; a first processing circuit; and a second processing circuit. The light source device can emit first light and fourth light having peak wavelengths in a transmission wavelength band of the blue color filter, second light, and third light and fifth light having peak wavelengths in a transmission wavelength band of the red color filter. The light source device emits the third light in a first imaging frame and the fifth light in a second imaging frame. The first processing circuit generates a display image based on any one of a first image group including images corresponding to the third light and the fifth light and a second image group including an image corresponding to the fourth light, and outputs a remaining one of the first image group and the second image group to the second processing circuit.
