Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an endoscopic surgery system, an image processing apparatus, and an image processing method that enable better endoscopic observation. Motion components at the time of imaging are estimated on the basis of an image captured by an endoscope, a degree of reliability indicating a degree that the motion components are motion components for the entire image is set, and a correction amount used when correction processing of correcting a blur is performed on the image is controlled according to the degree of reliability. For example, in a case where the motion components are single motion components, the degree of reliability is set to 1.0, and in a case where the motion components are a plurality of motion components, the degree of reliability is set to 0.0. The present technology can be applied to, for example, an endoscopic surgery system used in surgery using an endoscope.
