Title Ingestible electronics for continuous monitoring of radiation overexposure: circuit design
Summary Radiotherapy is a cornerstone treatment for various cancers, but radiation-induced gastrointestinal (GI) injury remains a significant complication, leading to inflammation, ulceration, and long-term functional impairments. Current dosimetry techniques, such as external sensors and computational models, provide indirect estimations of radiation exposure and fail to capture patient-specific variations in real time.

To address these limitations, we are developing ingestible electronics capable of continuous and in situ monitoring of radiation exposure within the GI tract. This approach enables real-time, patient-specific dosimetry, allowing for adaptive treatment strategies to minimize GI toxicity while optimizing therapeutic efficacy.
