As for scanning-type endoscope 2, the optical fiber 14 which the light which it illuminates in the living body the light guide is done and optical fiber 14 the Interpolation having the Interpolation through-hole 41h who passes, optical fiber 14 at specified length extending facilities to be done from the Tip, be provided in the attachment component 41 where the crevice 41g which is communicated with Interpolation through-hole 41h in the Tip was formed, and attachment component 41 from the Tip of attachment component 41 in the Drive section 15 which makes the free edge of the optical fiber scan 14 which extending Out is done and crevice 41g being applied or restoration, or, optical fiber to adhere with 14 and attachment component 41, attachment component 41The adhesion section 46 where the plane surface which matches the Tip was formed and, by the fact that it possesses, losing the dispersion of length of the free edge of the optical fiber between the respective individuals in the time of production, scan property of the optical fiber between the respective individuals becomes fixed.走査型内視鏡2は、生体に照明する光を導光する光ファイバ14と、光ファイバ14が挿通される挿通孔41hを有して、光ファイバ14が所定の長さで先端から延設され、先端に挿通孔41hと連通する凹部41gが形成された保持部材41と、保持部材41に設けられ、保持部材41の先端から延出する光ファイバ14の自由端を走査させる駆動部15と、凹部41gに塗布または充填されて光ファイバ14と保持部材41とを固着し、保持部材41の先端と一致する平面が形成された接着部46と、を具備することで、製造時における各個体間の光ファイバの自由端の長さのバラツキをなくして、各個体間での光ファイバの走査特性が一定となる。
