Abstract
A method of operating an endoscope by changing a magnetic field and controlling a feeding and a rotation synchronously comprises steps of: providing an endoscope, the endoscope including a magnetic section formed on a front end thereof, the magnetic section having a multi-section bending portion and a magnetic element; and setting a target position in a space. The method of operating the endoscope further comprises steps of: exerting a magnetic field on the magnetic element of the magnetic section, any one of a size, a direction, and a position of the magnetic field is allowed to be changed after exerting the magnetic field on the magnetic element of the magnetic section so that the magnetic element is guided by the magnetic field; and controlling the endoscope to feed or/and rotate based on the target position and a bendable direction of the multi-section bending portion.
