In a radiological incident, one of the first thing one wants to know is “am I exposed to radiation and how much?â€, i.e., one needs an instant dosimeter/answer.
RADTriage is highly reliable and the ONLY “seeing-is-believing†dosimeter that meets the requirements of an emergency dosimeter for citizens and first responders to minimize panic and worry and triage radiation exposure for medical treatment.
RADTriage is instantly color developing, self-indicating, user friendly, wearable, light weight (a few grams) failproof (no moving, no electronic or needs battery, reader, maintenance or
software), unaffected by ambient conditions, always ready 24/7, practically non-destructible, tamper resistant and tamper evident.
In an emergency, one needs to monitor only medically significant dose from 50 mSv (tolerable and yearly allowed dose. A CT scan dose can be as high as 50 mSv) to 10,000 mSv (a lethal dose).
All other dosimeters are expensive, bulky, fragile, and/or require calibration, software/App,
battery or a reader. None are readily deployable in an emergency. They are either over or less sensitive and can cause panic and worry. RADTriage has right dose range; 50 mSv – 10,000 mSv.
Public and government can afford to purchase and stockpile RADTriage. RADTriage costs a penny a day compared to nearly dollar a day for other dosimeters.
~100,000 RADTriage can be stockpiled in a cubic meter of a freezer for decades and distributed/deployed to public in shortest time.
In case of nuclear explosion, only RADTriage will work as it has no electronics or require electronic equipment to read the dose.
