Abstract :
The nurses do their phlebotomized work or the transfusion for the patients according to their experiences usually. The infrared thermal image display system for the veins location is designed. In the system, a special infrared amplification lens is designed to make the image clear. A gradual approach method for the preponderant signals amplification is described in the veins image data processing. By using of the arithmetic program, the image of the veins details in the skin is displayed clearly in the computer screen
