APPARATUS FOR LOCALIZATION AND DOSIMETRY OF WOUNDS WITH RADIOACTIVE CONTAMINATION.

Disasters involving radioactive materials are one of the most dangerous accidents a living organism can be exposed to. Individuals and first responders are in risk during accidents or interventions, due to radioactive debris impact, due to the use of depleted uranium ammunition or a malevolent act against individuals. Moreover, radioactive contamination of wounds causes internal exposure in the body and standard decontamination procedures cannot be applied.
