Abstract

An endoscope system includes: an endoscope comprising a first tube being inserted into a body, a second tube being arranged at a proximal end of the first tube, and a connecting portion connecting the first tube and the second tube so that the first tube can rotate relative to the second tube about a longitudinal axis; and a control device comprising at least one processor. The processor estimates a first guess shape based on information about positions of a plurality of points on the first tube, and estimates a second guess shape based on information about positions of two points on a proximal end side of a region of the first tube inserted into the body.
