Scientific Vision System Carries New MediCapture USB100 Digital Image Capture System
The MediCapture USB100 allows medical instrument operators to capture analog images generated by medical instruments such as ultrasound or endoscopes and convert them into digital images. The images are stored on a keychain-sized portable Flash Memory unit. To transfer to a PC, simply plug into the USB port and open the Flash Memory onscreen.
Carlsbad, CA (PRWEB) July 1, 2005 -- Scientific Vision Systems (SVS), one of
the leading distributors of medical and professional video equipment, announced
availability of the new MediCapture USB100 Digital Image Capture device. The
device, a desktop peripheral, allows users to capture and convert analog images
from endoscopes and ultrasound machines at the touch of a button. The images are
captured on a Flash Memory cartridge and can be transferred to any Windows PC
with a USB port.
The device installs easily by plugging in power and
attaching a cable to the Video Out port of the monitor for the endoscope or
ultrasound instrument. To capture an image, the operator simply touches a button
or uses a hands-free foot pedal. To transfer images to a Windows PC, the user
removes the portable Flash Memory cartridge (stick) from the MediCapture unit
and inserts the key-chain sized device into the USB port of their PC. Images can
then be archived, enhanced, emailed, and incorporated into teaching plans or
consultations as needed.
According to Dick Wheeler, President of
Scientific Vision Systems, “MediCapture provides a simple way to capture the
analog images generated by such instruments as endoscopes and ultrasound
instruments. This makes it easy for medical offices to archive digital images in
patient files or to transfer images directly to the patient. For example, the
doctor can now provide soon-to-be-parents with prenatal images of their
developing child.”
