StemRad has made personal radiation protection possible, making the lives of Physicians, Astronauts, First Responders, and Nuclear Industry Workers safer while they complete their critical tasks. Through scientific breakthrough and innovation, StemRad has enabled shielding to save lives.

StemRad’s revolutionary technology, which ties together selective shielding with the human body’s remarkable regenerative biological processes, is enabling shielding solutions which were not possible in the past. When exposed to high levels of ionizing radiation, the immediate concern to individuals is that of Acute Radiation Syndrome (ARS), also referred to as radiation sickness. In such cases, damage to the body’s bone marrow leads to fatal aplastic anemia, the hallmark of which is a severe lack of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. The pelvic bones contain the body’s largest concentration of bone marrow, so protecting them from the harmful effects of ionizing radiation is crucial. The StemRad 360 Gamma is worn around the pelvic area, affording highly effective protection to the body’s “life factory.” In situations of exposure to lower doses of radiation over longer periods, the threat is an increased likelihood of cancer several years later. To prevent this, it is critical to protect the organs which are most susceptible to radiation-induced cancer. That is exactly what the AstroRad and StemRad MD products are engineered to do.
