Disaster Radiology Lab (International Research Institute of Disaster Science)
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that studies the effects of radiation and the management of radiation exposure in disasters and medicine.
AboutAbout the lab
Measuring and communicating radiation in disaster and medical settings.
The Disaster Radiology Lab studies the effects of radiation on the human body and the management of radiation exposure, in nuclear disasters and in medicine.
Interest in radiation grew after the accident at the nuclear power plant in Fukushima, but the lab's web page states that many members of the general public still hold misunderstandings about its effects on the human body.
The lab evaluates the amount and effects of radiation that people receive, and also develops diagnostic imaging systems for use in disasters.
The lab also places importance on educating students in related fields.
Key terms
- Radiation exposure
- When the body receives radiation. It occurs in nuclear disasters and also when radiation is used in medicine
- Diagnostic imaging
- A method of examining the condition of a disease or injury by creating images of the inside of the body using X-rays and other means
- Radiation protection
- The principles and methods for limiting the amount of radiation received and reducing its effects on people
ResearchResearch themes
The lab's research addresses radiation issues that involve both disasters and medicine. It works on evaluating the doses and effects that the human body receives, managing radiation exposure, and developing diagnostic imaging systems for use in disasters.
