Capillaroscopy

Capillaroscopy is a method for examining small blood vessels, which allows you to assess the condition of the capillaries and their function. Capillaries are small vessels that are found in the tissues and organs of our body. They play an important role in metabolism and maintaining homeostasis.

A capillaroscope is a device that is used to perform capillaroscopy. It allows you to see the capillaries and assess their condition. The capillaroscopic research method makes it possible to diagnose various diseases, such as atherosclerosis, diabetes mellitus, rheumatoid arthritis and others.

To conduct a capillaroscopic study, it is necessary to conduct a special test. The patient is injected into a vein with a special dye, which then enters the capillaries. After this, the image obtained using a capillaroscope is analyzed.

One of the main advantages of the capillaroscopic method is its safety and painlessness. In addition, it allows you to obtain information about the state of the capillaries in the early stages of the disease.

Capillaroscopy is a method for examining the blood vessels of the skin and mucous membranes, which is used to diagnose various diseases. Capillaries are the smallest vessels that are located in the tissues of the body and ensure the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to cells.

Capillaroscopy is carried out using a special device - a capillaroscope. It is a microscope equipped with a special attachment for visual observation of capillaries. The capillaroscope allows you to see the capillaries in an enlarged form and assess their condition.

When performing capillaroscopy, the doctor can identify various diseases associated with circulatory disorders. For example, with atherosclerosis (a disease associated with the formation of plaques on the walls of blood vessels), narrowed or clogged capillaries can be seen. In diabetes, capillaries can become damaged due to high blood glucose levels.

Capillaroscopy can also be used to assess the condition of blood vessels in people exposed to harmful factors, such as smoking or working in hazardous industries.
