Assembly of filter insert and contact plate:
Attach the insert (9) to the contact plate (1) and rotate the insert to lock the
bayonet connection. To disassemble the filter (9) from the contact plate,
please reverse the procedure.
Attachment of contact plate:
The contact plates (1 and 8) are attached by a bayonet connection. To remove
the contact plate turn it counterclockwise and pull it away from the derma-
toscope. To attach, reverse the procedure. Always check whether the bayonet
is safely locked.
Operation
20 Plus Dermatoscope
HEINE DELTA
®
For examination of hard to reach lesions use the small contact plate (8) in
place of the standard contact plate (1).
Use DELTA 20 Plus with immersion contact plate (1a, 1b, 8):
Prepare the skin by moistening with HEINE dermatoscopy-oil (use a cotton
swab) or disinfectant spray.
Turn the dermatoscope on by rotating the on/off ring (7) at the handle. Gently
place the instrument so that the lesion is in the center of the contact plate.
The examiner's eye should be as close to the eye-piece (3) as possible. Adjust
the focus ring until a crisp, clearly-focused-image is obtained.
Always use the device in combination with one of the filter inserts
(polarizing filter or neutral density filter).
Only use contact plates from HEINE.
Using the DELTA 20 Plus with polarizing contact plate (1c, 1d):
When using the polarizing contact plate, DO NOT prepare the skin with liquid
like dermatoscopy-oil or disinfectants.
Apart from that the general operation is the same as the procedure above.
Brightness control:
The voltage regulation electronics of the HEINE DELTA
guarantee constant brightness.
Pressing one of the two buttons on the instrument (2) will reduce the bright-
ness by 50% and will turn off 2 of the 4 LED's resulting in lateral illumination
for improved contrast when viewing the pigmented structure.
An electrical conducting connection between camera, PC and a mains
power source is not permissible.
For documentation with a digital camera only, use the HEINE photo
adaptor and our recommend adaptor from the digital camera adaptor
range.
HEINE DELTA 20T Dermatoscope
®
The DELTA 20T allows for a rapid change from polarized to non-polarized
examination mode over a side switch. Application remains the same as the
DELTA 20 Plus with the immersion contact plate (see above). A difference is
that no immersion fluid is required in the polarized examination mode.
HEINE NC1 Dermatoscope
®
The device can be used in non-contact modus. To do this, the contact plate,
which is attached through magnets, must be removed.
Hold the device approximately 2cm above the skin area to be examined. Bring
your eye towards the eye piece (10) as close as possible and adjust the eye
piece focus until a sharp image is achieved.
Contact modus (with contact plate):
See HEINE DELTA 20 Plus Dermatoscope with polarizing contact plate.
®
An extra lens is integrated in the contact plate (11) which provides a 9 x magni-
fication when the contact plate is connected. Without the contact plate, a 6 x
magnification is achieved.
HEINE mini3000 LED/ XHL Dermatoscope
®
Moisten the affected skin with HEINE dermatoscopy oil or comparable
with a cotton wool swab. Switch on the device and place it gently over the
lesion, so that it is in the center of the contact plate (12).
The examiner's eyes should be as close as possible to the ocular (14). With
the free hand adjust the focusing ring (15) until a clearly focused image is
obtained. Using the scale on top of the dermatoscope you can control the
adjustment of the focusing ring. In most cases it is only necessary to set up
the focus once.
