Product Descriptions

The VeinSight
TM
vein finder detects veins beneath the skin by using
infrared light, then projecting the image of the veins on the skin surface
directly above the veins.

Qualified medical personnel can observe the displayed vasculature to
find a vein of the right size and the location of superficial veins for
venipuncture and other medical procedures.

The VeinSight
TM
vein finder only shows superficial vasculature. The
maximum depth of displayed veins varies by patients.

The causes for the different depths of display that are less than optimal
or lack of vein include, but are not limited to, vein depth, skin conditions
(e.g. eczema, tattoos), hair, scarring or other highly contoured skin
surface, and adipose (fatty) tissue.

When held directly overhead, the VeinSight
TM
vein finder accurately
locates the center of a vein.
