Abstract
An endoscope includes an imager unit loading region provided at a distal end portion of an insertion portion, a cable connection surface, a wall provided to connect an opening of the imager unit loading region and an opening of the cable connection surface to each other, a contact pattern formed on a wall surface of the imager unit loading region, a wiring pattern formed on a front surface of the cable connection surface from the wall, a connection pattern formed on the cable connection surface, and a through-electrode formed in the wall so that the imager unit loading region and the cable connection surface communicate with each other, configured to cause the contact pattern and the wiring pattern to electrically continue to each other, and formed at a predetermined angle with respect to a center axis of the distal end barrel member.
