Abstract
A medical image processing device includes an image processing unit configured to perform image processing, based on image data generated by imaging reflected light of first visible light emitted to an object and fluorescence when a light source device simultaneously emits the first visible light and excitation light that excites a fluorescent substance to emit the fluorescence. The image processing unit is configured to generate an interpolation pixel value corresponding to a component of second visible light in a wavelength band different from a wavelength band of the first visible light, based on a first pixel value and output from a pixel receiving the reflected light of the first visible light emitted to the object, generate a background image based on the first pixel value and the interpolation pixel value, and generate a fluorescence image based on a second pixel value included in the image data and output from a pixel receiving the fluorescence.
