Abstract
A medical image processing device includes an image processing unit configured to perform image processing on a captured image obtained by capturing a subject image. The image processing unit includes: a memory configured to store the captured image; and a noise processing unit configured to enable execution of writing of the captured image into the memory and readout of the captured image from the memory individually, and execute noise reduction processing of reducing noise of the captured image of the current frame based on the input captured image of the current frame and the captured image of the past frame read out from the memory, the noise processing unit being configured to execute readout stop processing of stopping readout of the past frame from the memory at a predetermined timing and writing the captured image of the current frame into the memory without executing the noise reduction processing.
