An endoscope processor comprises a processor. The processor causes a light source to generate, as illumination light, light in a first wavelength band in which hemoglobin absorption is smaller than that in a green band and light in a second wavelength band which is different from the first wavelength band. The processor causes an endoscope to image a return light so as to output an image signal. The processor acquires a first image obtained by the light in the first wavelength band from the image signal and detects unevenness information on mucosa from the first image. The processor acquires a second image obtained by the light in the second wavelength band from the image signal and synthesizes the unevenness information with the second image so as to generate a display image in which an uneven region in the second image is emphasized.
