PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To continuously capture images by turning on each of light sources of a skin surface illumination system and a subcutaneous illumination system by single action without any complicated button operation.SOLUTION: A control device for controlling turn-on timing of the illumination systems (5P, 5S) and image capturing timing by an image capturing element (7) includes: an illumination mode switch means which switches between at least the following two illumination modes in a preset order: a skin surface illumination mode (M2) using the skin surface illumination system (5P), and a subcutaneous illumination mode (M3) using the subcutaneous illumination system (5S) and a static image continuous capturing means which continuously captures static images of the illumination modes (M2, M3) while switching the illumination modes by the illumination mode switch means when a predetermined trigger signal is issued.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】面倒なボタン操作を行うことなく1アクションで皮膚表面照明系及び皮下照明系の光源を個別に点灯して各画像を連続的に撮像できるようにする。【解決手段】各照明系(5P,5S)の点灯タイミングと撮像素子(7)による画像取込タイミングをコントロールする制御装置に、皮膚表面照明系(5P)で照明する皮膚表面照明モード(M2)と、皮下照明系(5S)で照明する皮下照明モード(M3)の少なくとも二つの照明モードを予め設定した順序で切り換える照明モード切換手段と、所定のトリガー信号が発せられたときに照明モード切換手段により照明モードを切り換えながら、各照明モード(M2、M3)の静止画像を連続的に取り込む静止画像連続取込手段を備えた。【選択図】図3
