Abstract
An imaging module includes: a planar light emitter that includes a light-emitting face and a light-emitter terminal; a power supply cable that is connected to the light-emitter terminal and that supplies electric power to the planar light emitter; a solid-state image sensing device that captures an image of an illumination object that is irradiated with light emitted from the light-emitting face; a coaxial cable that is electrically connected to the solid-state image sensing device; a light shield that is disposed between the solid-state image sensing device and the planar light emitter; and a light guide that guides light emitted from the light-emitting face to an outside of the imaging module. The planar light emitter, the solid-state image sensing device, part of the light shield, and the light guide constitute a rigid portion of the imaging module.
