Takashima Lab
Machine-translated · View original
The lab uses X-ray, CT, and MRI to image the inside of the body and investigate changes in bone and muscle.
AboutAbout the lab
Good research starts with good questions.
Associate Professor Takashima's lab conducts research using imaging equipment used in everyday clinical care, such as plain X-ray, CT, and MRI.
Guided by the idea that "Good research starts with good questions," the lab logically investigates what is needed to obtain images that are useful for diagnosis.
Combining this with image analysis, the lab also pursues basic research on bone and muscle metabolism, aging, and inflammation, and puts emphasis on translational research that returns the results to clinical practice.
Key terms
- MRI
- An examination that uses a strong magnet and radio waves to produce images of cross-sections of the body.
- CT
- An examination in which X-rays are directed at the body from all around and a computer creates cross-sectional images.
- Translational research
- Research that connects findings from basic research to forms that are useful in actual clinical care.
- Metabolism
- The process by which substances in the body are made and broken down and continually replaced.
ResearchResearch themes
The lab's research centers on imaging equipment used in everyday clinical care, such as plain X-ray, CT, and MRI. It also conducts basic research on bone and muscle using image analysis, and research that links the results to clinical practice.
