Machine-translated · View original
A lab that studies diagnostic imaging of the oral region.
AboutAbout the lab
Broad research on diagnostic imaging of the mouth and jaw.
The Oral Imaging Science Lab conducts research on oral cancer, lymph nodes, salivary glands, the temporomandibular joint, jawbone lesions, facial morphology, and radiological science and engineering.
At the Oral Diagnostic Imaging Department of Kyushu University Hospital, the lab also carries out clinical research using patients' clinical information.
Its research plans include titles on image evaluation using CT, MRI, ultrasound, and artificial intelligence (AI).
On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Department of Oral Imaging Science."

*Illustrative imageDiagnostic imaging of oral cancer
The lab works on the relationship between preoperative imaging diagnosis of gingival cancer and prognosis, studies comparing the diagnostic accuracy of different examination methods for mandibular invasion in lower gingival cancer, and image analysis of recurrent malignant tumors.
*Illustrative imageDiagnostic imaging of lymph nodes
The lab works on diagnosing lymph node metastasis with Doppler ultrasonography, imaging diagnosis of extranodal extension in metastatic lymph nodes and of specific lymphadenitis, and analysis of metastatic lymph nodes from cancers other than squamous cell carcinoma. It also creates teaching files of cases of lymph node swelling.
