Scanning and detection of intracranial bleeding in closed head injured patients using Handheld screening device.

partially funded

Bioscan Research has developed a handy, non-invasive, fully computerized system for detecting intracranial hemorrhage in 2 min. This device will be utilized in and around Lucknow and Kanpur[U.P.] to scan the rural and underprivileged population for presence of hematomaorhemorrhage in brain. The scans will be performed by skilled personnel who would carry the scanning kit to the respective villages and scan the heads of majority of population. Following which the reports for each patients will be generated and analytics will be performed to have precise information of presence of hemorrhages in the respective geography. Additionally, any critically ill patients will be connected to the nearest medical facilities. This will help save the patients who have undiagnosed brain injuries that might lead to mortality or disability. The device that will be used to perform the scan is free from any harmful radiation and gives instant result, hence, as the timely detection is extremely important for brain injury related diseases so it will be much better than its existing counterpart i. e. CT Scan. Project Duration- 6 months Population scanned- 5000
