Blood vessels: Visualization in real time
We have jointly developed a technology to visualize the state of subcutaneous blood vessels in a non-contact and real-time manner.
This technology makes it easy to see the veins of elderly and children who are difficult to inject or collect blood because of the narrow blood vessels.
In addition, it is expected to be applied to diseases and diagnoses such as varicose veins (foot blood vessels swell like a hump).
This research result was published in the international academic journal IEEE Transaction on Visualization and Computer Graphics (TVCG) on October 21.
