Abstract

Abstract Translated from Japanese (57)【要約】 【課題】 内視鏡とその内視鏡が挿入される器官等との 位置関係を容易に把握でき、円滑な挿入が行い易い内視 鏡装置を提供する。 【解決手段】 患者ベッド9に載置された患者2は予め CTスキャン装置20により走査されてスライス断層像 が記録装置19に記録され、電子内視鏡5の挿入部3に 挿通配置され、γ線を放射するカテーテル31に対して γ線検出装置13をスキャナ12で走査することによ り、底部検出部13aと垂直検出部13bとで検出され たγ線は信号処理装置15により挿入部3の挿入形状が 検出され、さらに挿入部3の先端部の座標が中央処理装 置18に入力され、中央処理装置18はその座標周囲の 気管支等の器官内壁の3次元画像を生成し、ビデオミキ サ17を介してモニタ16には、器官内壁の3次元画像 48と挿入形状の3次元画像47とをオーバレイ表示 し、挿入等を行い易くした。 (57) [Problem] To provide an endoscope apparatus which can easily grasp a positional relationship between an endoscope and an organ or the like into which the endoscope is inserted, and facilitates smooth insertion. A patient (2) placed on a patient bed (9) is scanned by a CT scanning device (20) in advance, a slice tomographic image is recorded in a recording device (19), inserted into an insertion part (3) of an electronic endoscope (5), and γ The γ-rays detected by the bottom detection unit 13a and the vertical detection unit 13b are inserted into the insertion unit 3 by the signal detection unit 15 by scanning the γ-ray detection unit 13 with the scanner 12 against the catheter 31 that emits the X-rays. The shape is detected, and the coordinates of the distal end of the insertion section 3 are input to the central processing unit 18. The central processing unit 18 generates a three-dimensional image of the inner wall of the organ such as the bronchi around the coordinates, and outputs the three-dimensional image via the video mixer 17. Thus, a three-dimensional image 48 of the inner wall of the organ and a three-dimensional image 47 of the insertion shape are displayed on the monitor 16 in an overlay manner to facilitate insertion and the like.
