Abstract

We performed 1,154 image processings by using a newly developed electronic endoscope TV-Endoscope TRE-3000 (Toshiba Co, Ltd) since June to November in 1992.
The endoscope employs a CCD with about 270,000 pixels and enables us to perform 4 levels of digital band-pass filtering as structural enhancement in real-time. The peak frequency (horizontal) of the processing was set to 4.3 MHz. The band-pass filtering clarified the fine mucosal pattern and the fine vascular pattern in proportion to the gain level.
