Summary:To provide an endoscope system which can measure an insertion length of an endoscope with accuracy regardless of a posture of a patient in which an insertion part of the endoscope is inserted or the like, and an operation method thereof.SOLUTION: A sticking type electrode 20 is stuck to a patient. An endoscope side electrode 21 is provided in an insertion part 12a of an endoscope 12 in a longitudinal direction X. A processor 22 measures an insertion length of the insertion part 12a inserted in the patient P based on a change in electrostatic capacitance between the sticking type electrode 20 and the endoscope side electrode 21.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】本発明は、内視鏡の挿入部が挿入された患者の姿勢などに関わらず、精度良く内視鏡の挿入長を計測することができる内視鏡システム及びその作動方法を提供する。【解決手段】貼付型電極２０は、患者に貼り付けられる。内視鏡側電極２１は、内視鏡１２の挿入部１２ａに長手方向Ｘに沿って設けられる。プロセッサ２２は、貼付型電極２０と内視鏡側電極２１との間の静電容量の変化に基づいて、患者Ｐに挿入された挿入部１２ａの挿入長を計測する。【選択図】図２
