Abstract
Currently the health system continues to fight against the pandemic caused by SARS-CoV2 because this virus has not yet disappeared and there are still outbreaks of infections in several places, this generated in people an indecision of what it can generate later since this virus generated a change in the world. Being a contagious and fast-spreading virus, WHO called on all governments to take appropriate measures to stop the spread of COVID-19 as there were many infected. Given this, there are people who need the care of a doctor because they suffer from a disease and that this implies the extraction of blood for a deep analysis or to place an intravenous injection in the patient's forearm, but in many cases the distribution of the veins can not be visualized and this hinders the work of the doctor. In view of this problem, in this article an automatic vascular detection system was carried out for the part of the forearm of patients and to be able to visualize the subcutaneous vein so that the doctor has access quickly and help the patient in an emergency. Through the development of the system, it was observed that it works in the best way, since in its development a 97.69% efficiency was obtained by showing the binary image where the distribution of the veins is observed taking 8.74 seconds, being an accepted value so that it can be implemented in several medical centers.
