Abstract:
An endoscope attachment enables an endoscope to capture images of areas in front and at the sides of the endoscope. The endoscope attachment has a transparent attaching part which is used to attach the endoscope attachment to a probe of the endoscope and has two through-holes. A cylindrical transparent image capturing part is used to enable a camera of the probe to capture images and has a trumpet-shaped second mirror on the outer wall of the image capturing part and a wide angle lens with a hyperboloid in the image capturing part. A first mirror is formed at a part of the hyperboloid of the wide angle lens.
