SPACER ATTACHMENT FOR A DERMATOSCOPE

摘要

The spacer attachment for a dermatoscope comprises an outer sleeve (12) including an attachment end configured for releasable attachment to the illumination head of a dermatoscope and a contact end intended to be placed on the skin of a patient at an examination location. A filter insert (30) is releasably attached in the outer sleeve (12) by rotation about the central axis of the outer sleeve (12), wherein the filter insert (30) includes a viewing plate (52) intersected perpendicularly by the central axis of the outer sleeve (12). The filter insert (30) is releasably attached to the outer sleeve (12) by a rotation snap device comprising at least one resilient snap hook (44) which is arranged at the outer circumference of the filter insert (30) and resiliently engages around a projection (26) provided at the inner wall of the outer sleeve (12).
