When shooting the blood vessels in multiple imaging unit with respect to one light source, it is difficult to determine the amount of light of a light source in which a plurality of the imaging unit can simultaneously capture sharp vessel. The plurality of images photographed by yet a different amount of light, the positional relationship of the blood vessel included in the image of each becomes unclear, becomes unclear information of the entire vessel composed of a plurality of images. Disposed below the finger presenting unit, based on light from the first light source transmitted through the finger and the first imaging section for imaging blood vessels of a finger, it is located on a side of the first imaging unit, the finger based on the light from the transmitting the first light source, the luminance value of the portion of the image of the blood vessel is captured by the first imaging unit, a portion of a blood vessel which has been imaged by the second imaging section the luminance value of the image and can thereby control the amount of light to be the brightness value in the first range, the first imaging unit and the second imaging unit, the light from the first light source that is controlled quantity Based on the image and a vascular imaging apparatus is characterized in that to each image a.一つの光源に対して複数の撮像部で血管を撮影する場合、複数の撮像部が同時に鮮明な血管を撮影できる光源の光量決定が困難である。さらに異なる光量にて撮影された複数の画像では、画像の夫々に含まれる血管の位置関係が不明確となり、複数の画像によって構成される血管全体の情報が不明確となってしまう。指提示部の下方に配置され、指を透過した第一の光源からの光に基づいて指の血管を撮像する第一の撮像部と、第一の撮像部の側方に配置され、指を透過した第一の光源からの光に基づいて、第一の撮像部にて撮像された前記血管の一部の画像の輝度値と、第二の撮像部にて撮像された血管の一部の画像の輝度値とが、第一の範囲内の輝度値となるように光量を制御させ、第一の撮像部及び第二の撮像部は、光量を制御された第一の光源からの光に基づいて、画像を夫々撮像することを特徴とする血管画像撮影装置である。
