Vein visualization using AccuVein works for all body types and skin tones. Displaying veins beneath the surface can make blood draw procedure easier.
How it works: Hemoglobin in the blood absorbs infrared light. When AccuVein’s device is held above the skin and activated, it can detect the difference in the hemoglobin concentration between the veins and surrounding tissue, and projects a map of the veins on the skin above them.
Locating the point of needle placement is suddenly simplified for phlebotomy techniques.
