A new device that could potentially diagnose mild traumatic injury have been developed by scientists from University of Geneva in cooperation with three different hospitals. It analyses protein levels in blood flow by using a single drop of blood which may reduce the cost on medical examinations. In urgent situations like ball games or athletic events by knowing whether their H-FABP level is higher than 2.5 nanograms per millilitre of blood players can get diagnosed immediately.

Person can get diagnosed by visualizing a lane, if it appears he might require CT scanning but if it doesn’t appear than he is safe but if still he/she not satisfied they can see whether their diagnosis result is positive or negative by installing an application which will send the answer via Bluetooth. The results of the study were reported in Journal PLOS One.
