ENDOSCOPE USING DEPTH INFORMATION AND METHOD FOR DETECTING POLYP BASED ON ENDOSCOPE USING DEPTH INFORMATION

摘要

An endoscope using depth information and a method for detecting a polyp based on the endoscope using the depth information are provided. The endoscope using the depth information may generate an irradiated light signal including a visible light, obtain depth information based on the irradiated light signal and a reflected light signal obtained through the irradiated light signal being reflected off of an intestine wall, generate a depth image inside the intestine wall based on the depth information, and detect a polyp located on the intestine wall based on the depth image.
