Breast and Endocrine Surgery Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that studies the diagnosis and treatment of tumors such as breast cancer and tumors of the thyroid and adrenal glands.
AboutAbout the lab
Exploring breast and endocrine tumors through clinical care and research
The lab conducts research on the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer, thyroid cancer, adrenal tumors, and parathyroid tumors.
Besides clinical research, it also conducts basic research on the tumor microenvironment of breast cancer and tumor metastasis.
In its basic research, it works with the University of Tsukuba's immunology lab and clinical pathology lab on functional analysis of the immune system in carcinogenesis and functional analysis of pheochromocytoma.
Its website also introduces its clinical services and the recruitment of resident physicians.
