The Q-scope 20200-P from Euromex is an intuitive digital USB handheld microscope equipped with a powerful 2-megapixel camera. The portable pocket instrument with ergonomic design can be operated with two fingers and provides up to 200x magnification in the blink of an eye during microscopy. It connects to any computer via USB cable and displays high-resolution, real-time images of surfaces, skin lesions or parasites. Combined with free, easy-to-use software, Q-scope enables advanced image processing for further analysis. The variable zoom factor ensures that every important detail can be shown and documented. This means that results can be followed live during treatment and stored quickly and easily in the digital patient file.

State-of-the-art technology for razor-sharp images

Q-scope consists of a glass lens with anti-reflective coating, an attached polarizing filter and a CMOS sensor for a high frame rate. A built-in ring with 8 bright LED lights provides excellent illumination of the examined areas. The focus can be adjusted manually using the smooth-running thumbwheel and the distance between the instrument and the object being examined. Placing the Q-scope on the object enables a 50x magnification. Turning the thumbwheel up to its maximum allows magnification of up to 200x.

The trigger button, located on the side of the device, allows an image to be created with the click of a finger as well as automatically saved. A polarizing filter removes unwanted light reflections with a simple twist of the attachment cap. Images of reflective surfaces made of metal, glass or skin are therefore no problem for the Q-scope microscope.
