Simple SummaryContent extracted from patent full text and abstract with AI.

This patent describes a biodosimeter device that uses human RNA samples to measure gene expression changes caused by radiation exposure. By comparing gene expression levels before and after exposure, the device can accurately estimate how much radiation a person has absorbed.

Use CasesContent extracted from patent full text and abstract with AI.

  • Medical monitoring and assessment for workers in nuclear power plants or radiology departments
  • Emergency response after nuclear accidents to determine exposure levels in affected individuals
  • Space missions to monitor astronauts’ radiation exposure
  • Military personnel assessment following radiological incidents
  • Radiation therapy management to ensure patient safety during cancer treatment

BenefitsContent extracted from patent full text and abstract with AI.

  • Provides a biological, non-invasive method for assessing individual radiation dose
  • More accurate than relying solely on physical dosimeters
  • Enables early detection and intervention for radiation-exposed individuals
  • Can be applied in a variety of settings, including medical, industrial, and emergency response situations
  • Helps track and manage cumulative radiation exposure for at-risk groups

Patent Abstract

The radiation biodosimeter comprises a sample of human ribonucleic acid contained material by well known radiation anamnesis. A measuring instrument for the gene expression, identified by a measuring instrument for the expression of the genes, is also provided. The expression is changed by an obtained irradiation dose of 1 Gray around 25%, preferably around 50%, opposite to the express ion value without irradiation : An independent claim is also included for a method for measuring the radiation exposure of a human organism, which involves taking a sample of ribonucleic acid contained material from the organism before the radiation exposure, and measuring a gene expression in the sample.
