Diagnostic Imaging and Radiation Oncology Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A radiology lab where diseases are diagnosed with imaging and treated with radiation.
AboutAbout the lab
Diagnostic imaging and radiation therapy, integrated rather than divided.
The Diagnostic Imaging and Radiation Oncology Lab covers both diagnostic imaging and radiation therapy, the two pillars of radiology.
Rather than dividing the lab into diagnosis and treatment, it has specialist physicians in each field and engages in clinical work, research, and education.
In diagnostic imaging, the lab conducts clinical research using medical equipment such as high-field MRI, MDCT, and PET.
In radiation therapy, the lab has led radiation therapy in Japan with high-precision treatments such as stereotactic irradiation and intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT).
Key terms
- PET
- An examination in which a radioactive drug is injected and, based on how it accumulates, images are made to show how the body is functioning and where disease is located.
- IMRT
- A method of radiation therapy that varies the intensity of radiation by location so that it is concentrated on the tumor.
- Brachytherapy
- Treatment in which small radiation sources are placed inside the body to irradiate the tumor from within.
ResearchResearch themes
The lab aims to create new technologies in both diagnostic imaging and radiation therapy. Using the advanced medical equipment of the university hospital, it works on improving diagnostic performance, reducing radiation exposure, and developing high-precision radiation therapy.
