A capsule-type endoscope guidance system 1 comprising a capsule-type endoscope 10 and a guidance device 20 that guides the capsule-type endoscope 10. The guidance device 20 is capable of easily causing the capsule-type endoscope 10 to approach and pass through a pylorus having a fluctuating position or shape, as a result of having: a magnetic field generation unit 25 that generates a magnetic field MG that guides the capsule-type endoscope 10 a reception unit 21 that receives wirelessly transmitted image signals an image processing unit 23 that generates in vivo images on the basis of the image signals and extracts a pylorus area from the in vivo images a target position setting unit 261 that sets, as a target position, the position inside the subject body that corresponds to the pylorus area and a guidance control unit 262 that executes first guidance control and second guidance control, said first guidance control changing the position or the posture of the capsule-type endoscope 10 such that the center of the field of view for the capsule-type endoscope 10 matches the target position, and said second guidance control facing the capsule-type endoscope 10 towards the target position, in a state in which the center of the field of view matches the target position, and moving the capsule-type endoscope 10 forward at least until same comes in contact with the target position.Linvention concerne un système de guidage dendoscope de type capsule (1) comprenant un endoscope de type capsule (10) et un dispositif de guidage (20) qui guide lendoscope de type capsule (10).
