Assam University Researchers Patent a Design of Hormone Mapping Device

way2barak, March 6: A hormone mapping diagnostic ring device has been designed by Dr. Shubhadeep Roychoudhury, an Associate Professor in the Department of Life Science and Bioinformatics, along with his PhD scholars Anwesha Dey and Sandipan Das of Assam University.

The device is designed to enhance the clinical evaluation of patients suspected of having Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. It enables precise measurement and integrated mapping of key circulating hormones, including Luteinizing Hormone (LH), Follicle‑Stimulating Hormone (FSH), and Insulin—all of which play critical roles in the endocrine imbalance associated with PCOS.

By integrating these hormonal measurements into a structured diagnostic framework, the system assists clinicians in identifying subtle endocrine variations that may not be detected through conventional diagnostic approaches. This capability enables earlier detection, improved diagnostic accuracy, and more precise classification of PCOS phenotypes.

For patients, the technology supports personalized clinical decision-making by allowing physicians to tailor treatment strategies based on an individual’s hormonal profile. Ultimately, this approach enhances diagnostic confidence and contributes to improved patient management and better long-term health outcomes. The Patent Office of the Government of India has certified the patent.
