ABSTRACT:
An endoscope having a solid-state image pickup device in the distal end of the insert portion of the endoscope, the central axis of the solid-state image pickup device being apart from the central axis of the insert portion. Signal lines connected to the solid-state image pickup device are directed slantingly from the solid-state image pickup device toward the central axis of the insert portion of the endoscope. Thus, the diameter of the bending portion can be reduced without the interference of the signal lines with members contained in the peripheral area of the bending portion of the endoscope.
