VeinScanner Pro is a vein finder app, with zoom functionality and simulated infra-red to replicate the look and feel of a dedicated vein scanning device. VeinScanner Pro uses multispectral imaging principles and the intrinsic optical properties of skin to produce enhanced images of veins; it boosts oxyhemoglobin/deoxyhemoglobin absorption contrast and reduces the contribution of superficially-scattered and specularly-reflected light to the overall image.
