Abstract:
Provided are a processor device capable of correcting white balance without applying a burden to a user in a case where an endoscope that is not suitable for a light source device or a processor device is connected, and a method of operating the same. A correction coefficient acquisition unit acquires a correction coefficient from endoscopes. The white balance control unit selects and executes either first white balance processing in which an acquired correction coefficient is referred to, and white balance is corrected using the acquired correction coefficient, or second white balance processing in which the white balance is corrected using a first multiplied correction coefficient obtained by multiplying the acquired correction coefficient by a first conversion coefficient.

Claim (Index 1):
A processor device to which an endoscope that stores a correction coefficient for correcting a white balance of color images obtained by imaging an observation object is connected and which corrects the white balance on the color images acquired from the endoscope, the processor device comprising:\n a correction coefficient acquisition unit that acquires the correction coefficient from the endoscope; and a white balance control unit that performs a control in which either first white balance processing in which the acquired correction coefficient that is the correction coefficient acquired by the correction coefficient acquisition unit is referred to and the white balance is corrected using the acquired correction coefficient, or second white balance processing in which the white balance is corrected using a first multiplied correction coefficient obtained by multiplying the acquired correction coefficient by a preset first conversion coefficient is selected and executed.
