Abstract
A program causes a computer to execute processing including acquiring endoscopic images obtained by capturing images of a subject by a plurality of imaging units arranged on an end surface and a peripheral surface of a tubular distal end portion provided in an insertion portion of an endoscope, generating a composite image obtained by combining a plurality of the captured endoscopic images so as to form a view of an entire circumferential direction including a front visual field and a rear visual field with respect to the distal end portion, acquiring an insertion distance and a rotation angle of the endoscope inserted into a body of the subject at a time point when the endoscopic images are captured, and outputting the composite image in association with the acquired insertion distance and rotation angle of the endoscope.
