LHP1

Standard heating probe.

The following probes can be used as standard with the LHP1: –

  • LP7B needle probe for simultaneous laser Doppler measurement.

The following probes can be used with the LHP1 combined with a LHP1A1: –

  • LP12 type needle probe for simultaneous laser Doppler measurement.
  • LP3 type needle probe for simultaneous laser Doppler measurement.

The following probes can be used with the LHP1 combined with a LHP1A2: –

  • LP4 type needle probe for simultaneous laser Doppler measurement.

Use with LHAD adhesive discs.

The large area heater has an 11mm active diameter that can be rotated within a special holder to allow eight perfusion measurements (indexes at 45º intervals) to be made within the heated region of skin. These can be averaged to reduce variance of the flux, resulting from the spatial heterogeneity of the skin.
