Abstract:
An endoscope apparatus includes an imaging element, a video signal generating circuit, an illuminator, and one or more controllers. An imaging area in which a plurality of pixels are disposed includes a scanning area. In a case in which a first operation mode is set, the one or more controllers control the imaging element such that at least parts of the exposure periods of the pixels disposed in at least a part of the scanning area overlap each other. In a case in which a second operation mode is set, the one or more controllers control the illuminator such that the light source is turned on in a period in which at least parts of the exposure periods of the pixels disposed in at least a part of the scanning area overlap each other.

Claim (Index 19):
The endoscope apparatus according to  claim 1 , further comprising:\n a display configured to display an image of the subject, wherein the one or more controllers are configured to execute a measurement process on the basis of the video signal, the plurality of operation modes include an operation mode in which at least image display and the measurement process are executed, the one or more controllers are configured to control the imaging element to alternately output a first imaging signal and a second imaging signal, in a case where the operation mode in which at least the image display and the measurement process are executed is set, the first imaging signal is for one image used for the image display, the second imaging signal is for one or more images used for the measurement process, the display is configured to display the one image on the basis of the video signal generated from the first imaging signal, and the one or more controllers are configured to execute the measurement process on the basis of the video signal generated from the second imaging signal and corresponding to the one or more images.
