Functional description
The VISUCAM C allows the representation of the fundus of the eye with
the pupil being dilated. Easy operation of the camera provides quick
findings. The camera is particularly suitable for routine use. The fundus
of the eye can be assessed on the live image or the higher-quality single
image. Image capture and presentation permitted fully electronically.
The VISUCAM C employs the ophthalmoscope principle of the modern
fundus camera imaging the fundus of the eye at a field angle of 45º
and 25°. The instrument operates in non-contact mode. The setting
(positioning and focussing) can be done with visible light or infrared
light. The use of the infrared light allows you to work with the naturally
dilated pupil (i.e. without mydriaticum).
The halogen lamp used as light source ensures comparability of
captured images with customary ophthalmoscope and contact-lens
examinations.
The capture modes COLOR, RED and GREEN are possible with the
VISUCAM C, video clips can also be recorded if required. Operation is
easy and quickly learned by the user. Camera adjustment (freedom from
reflections, image sharpness) has to be assessed on the monitor.
When capturing images, the set image displayed on the monitor will be
saved as single image of improved quality. Setting errors are almost
precluded (what you see is what you get). The operating principle of the
VISUCAM Ce corresponds to that of a well known digital photographic
camera (adjustment, photographing, printing or exporting).
Capture sensors are special CCD color sensors depending on the image
angle. Observation is exclusively on the 15” monitor.
Dedicated, easily comprehensible software is available for the
adjustments of image capture, presentation and image export or
printout. A patient database ensures the correct assignment of the
images.
Like with a commercial digital camera, images can be stored only
temporarily, i.e. long-term storage of images must be done using an
external archiving system (e. g. VISUPAC /System) or simply by the
keeping of printouts.
Besides, the export of captured images to DICOM files ensures transfer
of all relevant data: images, time and patient data.
A network link or the optionally available USB Flash Drive is
recommended for simple export and transfer to another computer
system.
