Abstract

In an electronic endoscope system, a scope has a CCD image sensor provided at a distal end thereof to generate image-pixel signals, an image-signal processing unit produces a video signal based on the image-pixel signals, and a monitor displays an endoscope-image according to the video signal output from the processing unit. A scene-changing system changes a scene on the monitor between an endoscope-image-display scene and a patient-data-list-display scene. A storage system stores patient data forming a patient list which should be displayed on the monitor when the scene on the monitor is changed from the image-display scene to the list-display scene by the scene-changing system. A selection system selects individual patient data from the patient data list displayed on the monitor. A display-control system displays the selected individual patient data together with the endoscope-image on the monitor when the scene on the monitor is changed from the list-display scene to the image-display scene by the scene-changing system.
