Grayscale and Binary Image Enhancement of Hand Vein Images to Aid Peripheral Intravenous Access

Difficulty in achieving a peripheral intravenous (IV) access in pediatric and some adult’s patient is a clinical problem. The use of near-infrared imaging device to aid visualization of an IV access usually suffers from low contrast and noise due to nonillumination and thickness of hand skin. This...
