Nobody wants to be poked by a doctor or nurse trying to draw blood, or start an IV. So, Luminetx developed a fix for that very painful problem. VeinViewer uses an infrared camera, and a high powered image processor to find veins immediately, without the pain and puncture wounds of trial and error. The VeinViewer is easy to operate and is affordable at $25,000 (Its a bargain at medical equipment prices). It also extremely safe, the IR light isn’t warm enough to warm the body or cause tissue damage. VeinViewer never comes in contact with the skin, eliminating any chance it might spread a transmittable disease.
