Abstract: An image display control device displays a human body interior image on a display device and includes an imaging section, a transmission section, an image acquiring section, a transmitter, and a power source. The imaging section images the interior of a human body and generates human body interior image data. The image acquiring section acquires the human body interior image data corresponding to the human body interior image from the imaging section through the transmission section. The transmitter transmits the human body interior image data acquired by the image acquiring section to the display device through wireless communication. The power source supplies power to the imaging section, the image acquiring section, and the transmitter. The image acquiring section, the transmitter, and the power source are integral to one another, forming a main unit.
