TrichoScope DLE

TrichoScope DLE is the best solution, when a lower budget with some less magnification options, however, robust and reliable, while suitable for most clinical and research environment applications visualization equipment is of a primary concern.

This TrichoScope is based on a handheld digital microscope with a single optical lens approach, allowing for lower (x50) and higher (x200) levels of magnification and adjustable polarization. By simply rotating the polarizer filter, the TrichoScope can efficiently decrease the reflection glare to almost any extent, thus allowing for a quite perfect hair visualization, as well as to see through the partially transparent surface of the scalp, while an addition of the special lens glass cover, included with equipment supply, conveniently enables for a stuides with submersed media applied. Thanks to the built-in 8 bright white LED's, an external light source is not needed for its 1.3 or 5 million pixel image sensor with a Microtouch function, enabling to send captured images to a PC.

There is no need for an additional power source as well, since this device is powered just by USB 2.0 connection to a computer.

The TrichoScope comes in a ABS plastic or aluminium alloy housing and complies with regulations for a Medical Device Class 1 devices for EU, while an established vendor support with a well-developed international presency allows for this equipment worry-free usage anywhere worldwide.
