Abstract
A monitoring and diagnosing system includes a position indication instruction device, an endoscope equipment, and an image integrated monitoring device. The system may be capable of increasing reliability of a test by performing drug induced sleep endoscopy while changing, in a predetermined order, a body position of a patient so as to examine sleep-disordered breathing.
