Shidahara Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A quantum medical engineering lab that develops techniques and evaluation methods for medicine using radiation.

AboutAbout the lab
Contributing to future medicine with radiation and radioisotopes.
The Shidahara Lab studies techniques and evaluation methods for medical engineering (including nuclear medicine) that use radiation and radioisotopes.
The lab aims to contribute to future medicine by developing methods that are highly practical and useful.
It works on techniques that improve the quantitative accuracy of biological functions observed with quantum technologies.
It is also advancing techniques that simulate medical examinations on a computer, as well as the evaluation of medical radiation exposure associated with diagnosis and treatment.
Key terms
- Nuclear medicine
- Medicine in which a radioactive drug is introduced into the body and the radiation it emits is measured to examine bodily function or to treat disease.
- PET
- An examination that detects radiation from a radioactive drug and turns the functions inside the body into images.
- Medical radiation exposure
- The amount of radiation a patient receives when radiation is used in examinations or treatment.
