Blood test on the brain with handheld devices
The InfranScanner handheld provides clinicians with a powerful, compact, flexible tool for identifying intracranial haemorrhage in patients with head trauma.
About two years ago, InfraScan Medical Device was patented for near infrared (NIR) imaging technology, the application of detecting hematuria on the brain.
To date, InfraScan has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration to upgrade the InfraScanner 2000 from the 1000, which is very handy in emergency situations such as off-site, off-site. The key to developing the InfraScanner 2000 model is the Navy and Marine Corps.
A bi-directional light device for simultaneous projection of 8 predetermined positions on the victim's head. Near-infrared laser light penetrates the skull, reaching the surface of the brain.
When the light is reflected back, the device's optical detector will distinguish where blood circulates normally and where the hematoma causes brain thrombosis, in fact these areas of the hematoma will absorb more light. .
Version 1000 consists of two separate parts, a luminescence device and a receiver that contains the display, control and data processing on a PDA communicating via Bluetooth, while the 2000 version is grouped into one unit. only. Another improvement is that in addition to the dedicated NiMH rechargeable battery, the 2000 model can work well with four AA batteries
Gizmag said it was not just military applications that InfranScanner would soon enter civilian life such as sports injuries and accidents.
