Abstract
An endoscope or the like that prevents crosstalk between multiple light-emitting parts is provided. An endoscope includes: an observation window that is disposed at a distal end of an insertion part; a plurality of first light-emitting parts that are disposed around the observation window; a second light-emitting part that is disposed between the first light-emitting parts and emits light at a bandwidth different from a bandwidth of light emitted by the first light-emitting parts; and a light-shielding body that is disposed between one of the first light-emitting parts and the second light-emitting part.
