An electronic imaging apparatus for transillumination and visually exposi ng vasculature of the human anatomy by passing infrared light through the porti on of the anatomy to be studied and receiving infrared light which passes through the flesh and bone. By receiving only infrared light which is passed through the body, a real time image of the vasculature may be visualized as infrared light does not pass through blood filled organs, namely, veins, arteries and capillaries. A method is disclosed which describes the steps of placing the human anatomy to be studied adjacen t a light source, receiving infrared light which passes through the anatomy and visualizing the resultant image of the human vasculature.
