Abstract
The difficulty of intravenous access in patients is an important clinical issue. Recently, many studies and several devices have been developed to assist physicians, nurses and surgeons in finding veins. Amongst them, near infrared imaging technology is one of the new technologies being widely used in the biomedical. NIR imaging allows visualizing veins underneath the skin of those having non-visibility of veins problem, mapping the normal and abnormal veins in treating disorders, or diagnosing related diseases. In this paper, we will introduce a portable device which can help doctors and nurses visualize blood vessel maps of their patients. On basic of combining a vein infrared imaging method and a projector system, this vein instrument can be optimally designed for viewing veins in the monitor or displaying vessel maps of patients directly on their skin.
