Radiation Therapy Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that works to advance radiation therapy for cancer.
AboutAbout the lab
Aiming to advance radiation therapy further.
The Radiation Therapy Lab conducts research aimed at further advancing radiation therapy for cancer.
Radiation therapy places little burden on the body, and as patients age, it is expected to play an even larger role in cancer treatment.
The lab places importance on collaborative research with the radiation oncology division at Tohoku University and with people involved in radiation therapy at other institutions.
Together with the medical physics group of the Division of Radiation Oncology in the Graduate School of Medicine, the lab conducts joint research and trains medical physicists and radiation therapy technologists specializing in radiation therapy.
Key terms
- Adaptive radiotherapy
- Radiation therapy that is adjusted to match changes in the shape of organs or lesions during the irradiation period
- Adverse event
- An undesirable change in the body that occurs in connection with treatment, including side effects
- Medical physicist
- A specialist who supports radiation therapy from the physics side
ResearchResearch themes
Radiation therapy has become increasingly precise, and stereotactic radiotherapy and intensity-modulated radiotherapy have reduced side effects and improved treatment outcomes. To advance radiation therapy further, the lab conducts joint research with the radiation oncology division at Tohoku University and with radiation therapy practitioners at other institutions.
