Hematopoietic Syndrome, often associated with acute radiation syndrome, occurs when the bone marrow is severely damaged, leading to a significant reduction in blood cell production. This results in symptoms such as anemia, increased susceptibility to infections, and bleeding disorders due to low levels of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. The syndrome typically manifests after exposure to high doses of ionizing radiation, and its severity depends on the radiation dose received. Treatment focuses on supportive care, including blood transfusions and infection management.

The most probable acute radiation syndrome subsyndrome with 400 RAD 2 hours after exposure is the hematopoietic subsyndrome, which affects the blood-forming tissues. At this dose and time frame, individuals may experience symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.
Hematopoietic tissue is blood-forming tissue that replenishes the body's supply of red cells. Your Welcome :-)

There are two other sources of hematopoietic stem cells--bone marrow and peripheral blood
Most often, hematopoietic hyperplasia is found in patients who have sickle cell anemia. Although rare, it does show up from time to time.

Have them check you for MDS.....Myleodysplastic Syndrome. My husband was diagnosed with it 1 1/2 year ago. Hope it isn't MDS.
No, the skin is non-haematopoietic tissue.
It is the system in the body which is responsible for the production of blood cells
The blood cell begin their lives in the bone marrow from a single type of cell called pluripotent hematopoietic stem cell.All the circulating blood cells are eventually derived from PHSC.
