Abstract
An endoscopic image processing apparatus is configured to generate a display image including one main screen and one or more sub-screens smaller than the main screen for displaying an endoscopic image obtained by picking up an image of an object in a subject with an endoscope. The endoscopic image processing apparatus includes a processor. The processor receives the endoscopic image and detects one or more lesion candidate regions included in the endoscopic image, highlights a position of the lesion candidate region, and sets, based on any one of a state of the lesion candidate region, a work state of a user who performs work using the endoscope, or a display state of the display image, a highlighting method in highlighting a position of the lesion candidate region included in at least one of the main screen or the sub-screen.
