Summary:The invention discloses a device and a method for detecting a blood vessel. The device comprises a visible light source, an optical fiber coupler, a lighting optical fiber, an imaging receiving channel, an infrared beam splitter, a far infrared lens zoom system, a far infrared detector, a visible light lens zoom system, a visible light image sensor and an image processing system. According to the characteristic and the blood vessel blood flow heat transfer property that different heat radiation is generated by metabolic activity of hot body cells, tissues or organs in different states, infrared thermal imaging technology is integrated with visible light imaging technology, a high-quality and high-contrast blood vessel image is acquired, analysis of related blood flow parameters such as blood vessel blood flow speed and blood perfusion can be assisted, and early disease prediction and health assessment are performed according to temperature characteristics of human tissues under different pathologies.
