- the portion 1002a existing in the vicinity of the epidermis and the reflection from the inner portion 1002b cannot be sufficiently separated, and the direct reflection from the epidermis is detected with higher intensity optically. Therefore, it is not suitable for observing diffuse reflection reaching the dermis with a sufficient S / N ratio. From this, although the image regarding the epidermis part 1002a is clearly observed, the inner dermis part 100b may be observed only at a low contrast or may not be observed as shown in FIG. In addition, the spread, shape, color, wrinkles and exudation associated with cell wall infiltration cannot be clearly diagnosed.
- the affected area 1002 is observed in the polarization mode, as described with reference to FIG. 6, the stronger direct reflection is cut by the optical isolator function of the circularly polarizing filter 102, and is reflected from the site 1002b inside the tissue.

- the brightness is adjusted by linking the selector switch to the knob 110a.
- the direct mode the number of LEDs 103a is set to, for example, half, so that the amount of light is low, and in the polarization mode, the entire number is turned on. It can also be adopted.
- a volume for adjusting the luminance of the LED 103a can be arranged in the inspection module 115 so that the luminance of the background becomes comparable in accordance with the characteristics of the specific inspection module 115.
- any conventionally known method that can be used to adjust the brightness of the LED 103a can be used.
- the position of the inspection module 115 since the position of the inspection module 115 does not change between the direct mode and the polarization mode, it is possible to determine the degree of infiltration of the affected area without considering the positional deviation, thereby reducing the examination burden on the doctor. In addition, the diagnosis can be performed with higher accuracy.
- FIG. 12 shows an embodiment of data stored in the storage device 1020 by the information processing apparatus 1010 shown in FIG.
- the image data is generated as a pair of direct mode and polarization mode, and is generated as data1, data2,.
