ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a vein spotter which consists of a flexible band which has a buckle attached to one end and a hook and pile Velcro type of fastener mounted on a first surface. A plurality of protrusion members are mounted on the second surface of the band. The buckle and the hook and pile fastener allow the flexible band to be formed into a loop encircling a limb with the protrusion members pushing into skin, displacing tissue into spaces formed between the projecting members and causing superficial veins to distend and become visible.
