A New Method of Matrix-Based Triage for Nuclear Disasters
During nuclear disaster, infrastructure is severely damaged and injuries are often combined with trauma/burns and whole-body radiation. This makes triage difficult, especially when resources are severely deficient. To solve this problem, in this article, the authors have suggested a new less technol...

| description | During nuclear disaster, infrastructure is severely damaged and injuries are often combined with trauma/burns and whole-body radiation. This makes triage difficult, especially when resources are severely deficient. To solve this problem, in this article, the authors have suggested a new less technology-dependent radiation dosimetry and quick triage using a specially designed triage matrix during nuclear disasters. |
