HEINE DELTA 30 PRO quality dermatoscope with improved depth imaging and colorSHIFT

HEINE is continuing its successful series of DELTA dermatoscopes with the HEINE DELTA 30 PRO. To improve depth visualisation of layers of the skin, the developers have rearranged the LEDs used for illumination in the DELTA 30 PRO. So the light reaches deeper layers of the skin – giving an extremely vivid, spatial impression of lesions. Practitioners can also choose individual colour temperatures for illumination to suit their personal preferences.

New hyperangulated HyMac 3 blade for the HEINE visionPRO video laryngoscope

The HEINE visionPRO video laryngoscope is suitable for routine use during any intubation procedure. Every now and again, when intubating with a video laryngoscope, users can encounter airway situations that require them to look a little more ‘around the corner’ and where it may be beneficial to use a slightly more curved blade. The new HEINE HyMac single-use blade with a more pronounced curvature is now available specifically for these special situations.

HEINE is thus expanding its range of blades for the visionPRO video laryngoscope, which previously only included blades in the classic Macintosh shape.
