DosiKit, a first portable field medical device for fast triage of people after external irradiation

Project description

Dosing kit for nuclear accident victims

There is currently a lack of irradiation biodosimetry tools that can be used in the event of nuclear accidents where individuals are exposed to potentially dangerous levels of radiation. There are also no devices that can be used by non-specialists in the field to give immediate results in cases of partial-body irradiation (PBI). The EU-funded DosiKit project has developed a device and a fast test that can identify and classify irradiated individuals in the field after nuclear accidents. The project hopes to make the device available in 2022 in Europe after some important regulatory and risk assessment studies.
