METHOD FOR MEASURING RADIOACTIVE EXPOSURE DOSE IN BODY USING APOPTOTIC FRAGMENT ASSAY

摘要

PURPOSE: A measuring method for a radioactive exposure dose is provided to rapidly and accurately predict a radioactive exposure dose and efficiently cure patients by drawing blood from peripheral blood vessels and by analyzing the blood using an apoptotic fragment assay. CONSTITUTION: To measure a radioactive exposure dose in a body, lymphocytes separated from blood is cultured and the number of apoptosis cells is calculated. The apoptosis cells are increased in case of a radioactive exposure. In accordance with the correlation, the radioactive exposure dose is measured by calculating the number of apoptosis cells. Therefore, the apoptotic fragment assay is more efficient than a chromosome abberation.
