<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a supplementary diagnostic apparatus of an endoscope, capable of checking the advance of a disease condition in real time. <P>SOLUTION: In the supplementary diagnostic apparatus 40 of an endoscope for observing an observation target part by moving images, an image conversion part 30 converts first color information of the moving images output from an imaging element 12 provided in an insertion part of the endoscope to second color information including at least information of brightness. An image feature information amount analysis circuit 32 converts the second color information to a code and analyzes the image feature information amount of the code. In a database, some moving images are turned to still images and the still images and the image feature information amount of the still images are preserved in association. An image retrieval circuit 36 retrieves the still image similar to the moving image under observation from the database 28 on the basis of the image feature information amount. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
