An illumination optical system has a diffusion member including a number of nearly spherical members which are diminutive in size and transparent and a transparent medium whose refractive index is higher than that of air and different from that of the nearly spherical members and which holds the nearly spherical members, on the exit end face of a light conducting device for introducing illumination light. In this way, a visual field can be efficiently illuminated.

An imaging optical system includes a liquid crystal lens including a first body formed of a substantially transparent birefringent liquid crystal member, a second body formed of a substantially transparent birefringent liquid crystal member, and two pairs of electrodes for adding an electric field or a magnetic field onto the first body and the second body. A rear face of the first body is aligned perpendicular to a front face of the second body, the first body and the second body have substantially symmetrical shape against a plane perpendicular to an optical axis and a plurality of optical elements are arranged front and after the liquid crystal lens. The liquid crystal lens has two distinct focal points. The system automatically switches between these focal points, based on the position of the lens with respect to the object being observed.

An image fiber is provided with an image transmitting portion including a plurality of cores and a cladding surrounding the cores; a jacket layer higher in refractive index than the cladding, covering the periphery of the image transmitting portion; and a coating layer higher in refractive index than the cladding, covering the periphery of the jacket layer. The image fiber, integrally constructed in this way, allows light propagating through the cladding to be effectively eliminated, and thus fails to produce flare.

A general-light observation light image can be obtained by illuminating the polarized frame sequence light or polarized white light, for example. In addition, a parallel polarized component and a vertical polarized component with respect to a polarizing direction of illuminating light, which is polarized in a specific direction are captured. Then, image data, which is a difference between both of the polarized component is calculated and is displayed in a display device. Thus, a scattered light component in a living-body tissue surface side can be extracted with good S/N, which can improve the diagnosis functionality.

An image fiber includes plural kinds of cores and a common cladding containing the cores, which are arrayed so that no similar cores are adjacent one another. A method of making the image fiber is that a plurality of optical fiber elements having cores of different diameters are arranged so that no similar cores are adjacent one another, and after being inserted in a jacket pipe, are heated at a high temperature to fuse the cladding portions of the optical fiber elements so that the whole is drawn down to a desired thickness.
