Abstract

The present invention relates to a multi-band optical filtering method and apparatus and to a multi-band optical filtering method and apparatus capable of filtering wavelengths of two or more bands in order to create a multi-wavelength image of a subject. In the present invention, the optical filtering apparatus for creating a multi-wavelength image of a subject comprises a filter unit having a plurality of sub filter units comprising a first sub filter unit through which a first wavelength band passes and a second sub filter unit through which a second wavelength band, which is different from the first wavelength band, passes, wherein while the light generated in a light source passes through the filter unit, the filter unit filters the light such that an intensity of the first wavelength band is dominant in a first region, and an intensity of the second wavelength band is dominant in a second region.
