Rapid sample processing and interpretation of estimated exposures will be critical for triaging exposed individuals after a major radiation incident. The dicentric chromosome (DC) assay assesses absorbed radiation using metaphase cells from blood. The Automated Dicentric Chromosome Identifier and Dose Estimator System (ADCI) identifies DCs and determines radiation doses. This study aimed to broaden accessibility and speed of this system, while protecting data and software integrity. ADCI Online is a secure web-streaming platform accessible worldwide from local servers. Cloud-based systems containing data and software are separated until they are linked for radiation exposure estimation. Dose estimates are identical to ADCI …

Development Of A Novel Rodent Model Of Radiation-Induced Implant Capsular Contracture, Tanya Delyzer
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Radiation-induced implant capsular contracture is a challenging complication of post-mastectomy breast reconstruction. The objective of this thesis was to establish a novel rodent model that replicates the critical properties of this complication. Retired breeder female Sprague-Dawley rats underwent surgery with custom smooth silicone implants placed under the right 4th mammary fat pad. Half these rats received 26Gy of ionizing radiation to the implant and fat pad. Radiated implants had both higher Baker grades of capsular contracture and Kumar scores denoting radiation-induced fibrosis. Irradiated capsules showed increased Masson’s trichrome staining and significantly higher hydroxyproline to total protein ratio compared to …
