Abstract: An endoscope operation support apparatus (2000) acquires a shape data sequence (50) representing a temporal change of a shape category of an endoscope scope (40). The endoscope operation support apparatus (2000) uses the shape data sequence (50) to determine a target category suitable as a transition destination of the shape category of the endoscope scope (40) or a target position which is a position suitable as a position at which the endoscope scope (40) transitions. The endoscope operation support apparatus (2000) outputs target information (20) that is information regarding the target category or the target position.

Abstract: An flexible tube insertion apparatus includes a tubular insertion section including a bending portion and a flexible tube portion, variable stiffness sections to cause a change in a level of a bending stiffness of the flexible tube portion, a variable stiffness control section that controls the change in the bending stiffness by the variable stiffness sections; and a time setting section that sets a time period. The variable stiffness control section causes the bending stiffness of the variable stiffness sections to change in such a manner that the relationship of levels between the bending stiffness of adjacent variable stiffness sections is switched at the set time period when the variable stiffness control section determines that the flexible tube portion is passing through a flexure of the subject.
