In Imaging centers, imaging (X-RAY, fMRI, or regular scan) is a technique used to see the internal structure of the patient’s body. During an angiogram procedure, for instance, the surgeon usually injects a contrast agent (iodine dye) in the patient’s vein in order to make the vascular system more visible, either during diagnosis or treatment.
In addition, the patient should be sedated during the time necessary for the procedure. For an accurate diagnosis and less painful procedure for the patient, the Vein Finding process needs to be made easily. That is to say, venipuncture can be particularly challenging in some patients.
For example in cases where the vein is not easily detectable due to a skin condition, the age of the patient (old or a baby), obesity, or the skin color, injecting substances, during contrast imaging, are very challenging.
SIFVEIN makes this complicated process way easier in the Imaging center. SIFVEIN emits a non-invasive infrared light with different wavelengths, making projection depth adaptable.
For instance, the FDA Portable Vein Detector SIFVEIN-5.2 mainly composed of a mainboard, a display screen, a camera, and a LED light source.
It has a different wavelength; to allow the absorption of light by oxyhemoglobin in surrounding tissues and vessels. After photoelectric conversion and image processing, the information is filtered to display veins on the screen.
Moreover, SIFVEIN trolley vein detectors, such as the SIFVEIN-7.11, SIFVEIN-6.0, or SIFVEINSET-1.0 are perfect for Imaging centers setting since they’re wheeled stands linked to the most accurate and clear infrared vein finders.
To sum up, It may be a condition of the treatment in imaging centers to receive venous access to administer contrast dye. Therefore, by using vein illumination veins can be located and mapped on the resident’s skin. Indeed, the benefits of the SIFVEIN for imaging facilities include increased nurse confidence, improved patient satisfaction, and reduced delays.
