Took my daughter for a blood draw today and we got to use a vein visualization device for the first time. It wasn’t this exact model, but it was pretty similar: https://christiemed.com/products/veinviewer-models/veinviewer-vision2/

Maybe I’m just basic, but I was really impressed. Apparently it uses an infrared camera to see the patient’s blood vessels and then it uses a projector to display them on the patient’s skin so that the phlebotomist has an easier time finding a good blood vessel. Brilliant!

      Partially agreement. There shouldn’t be markdown in titles and Lemmy should probably have stripped it altogether: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3828

      Disregarding the malplaced markup in the title, the article link is also broken. (Contains broken markup).

      And again the multiple indentations and “cross-posted from” makes it look like Re: Re: FW material. I think my criticism is valid, even if I probably did sound a bit like a dick about it.
