To maintain flexibility of an insertion part on a tip of an endoscope even when the number of signal cables is increased.SOLUTION: An endoscope having an insertion part to be inserted into a region to be inspected is provided that comprises: a mount board mounting thereon, an imaging device for imaging the region to be inspected; a plurality of signal cable connection regions (lands) which are provided in an end, opposite to the insertion side, of the mount board, and electrically connected to the imaging device, and can be connected to a plurality of signal cables by solder. The signal cable connection regions are formed on at least two boards for connection laminated on the mount board.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4【課題】信号ケーブルの本数が増えても内視鏡の先端の挿入部の可撓性を維持する。【解決手段】被検部位に挿入される挿入部を有する内視鏡であって、前記被検部位を撮像する撮像素子を実装する実装基板と、前記実装基板の前記挿入側とは反対側の端部に設けられ前記撮像素子と電気的に接続するための複数の信号ケーブル接続領域(ランド)であって、はんだにより複数の信号ケーブルと接続可能な複数の信号ケーブル接続領域と、を有し、前記信号ケーブル接続領域は、前記実装基板に積層される少なくとも2以上の接続用基板に形成されていることを特徴とする内視鏡。【選択図】図4
