An endoscope system using a capsule-type endoscope put in a human body is disclosed. More particularly, the endoscope system is capable of stopping and moving the capsule-type endoscope put in an organ of the human body, for a photographic diagnosis for example, through a remote control from the outside of the human body using a magnetic force. According to the embodiment of the present invention, since a rotating magnetic field is generated using two magnets symmetrically disposed with respect to the capsule-type endoscope, the magnet size can be reduced to obtain the same magnitude of magnetic force in comparison with the conventional art using only one magnet. Since the magnetic forces exerted by two magnets to the capsule-type endoscope are compensated by each other, the magnetic force would not be excessively operated in radial directions of the capsule-type endoscope. Accordingly, damage of the organ by the excessive magnetic force can be prevented. |
