Note that CapiScope records video in an uncompressed raw format. Compression used for these examples will have introduced artefacts.
Also note that the CapiScope movement correction is also not shown.
Nailfold
- Visualize, capture and record capillaries digitally.
- Simple single USB2 connection for video and power.
- Strobed illumination for sharp blur free images
- Includes CapiScope analysis software
- Automatic measurement of vessel diameters.
- Manual and automatic capillary density.
- Blood cell velocity from 0 to about 2mm/s using video correlation.
- Fast response time follows cardiac and vasomotion velocity changes.
- Interchangeable lenses available.
The CapiScope HVCS uses oblique profiled epi-illumination imaging (OPEI) to provide high contrast visualisation of the microcirculation in mucosal and other tissues.
Video and Image Recording
The CapiScope HVCS can display and record video at full frame and full frame rate. The monochrome video is stored uncompressed to avoid problems with information loss found with many digital video recorders. Single frames can be saved in bmp or tiff formats and video can be exported as avi files.
