Abstract
A video endoscope has in its distal end region an objective lens, a semi-conductor imager assigned to it and further electronic components provided for wiring it. In order to further reduce the required diameter of the endoscope shaft compared to the known designs, the electronic components are arranged on an integral ceramic substrate, on which the conductors for joining and for connecting these parts are directly placed.
