Nambu Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that builds pathways for solving problems in medical practice through engineering.

AboutAbout the lab
Bringing engineering into medical practice.
The Nambu Lab conducts research that aims to solve problems found in medical practice through the power of engineering.
To date, the lab has developed quantitative diagnostic imaging methods and technologies that reduce X-ray radiation exposure, and has co-proposed "Advanced Engineering Surgery" as a field of surgery for making full use of the outcomes of engineering.
It has carried out research and development on information-guided surgical devices, surgical safety engineering, and transplantation device engineering.
The lab regards medical regulatory science as a methodology for pursuing fair regulation, which is essential for turning technology into products and making them widely available.
Key terms
- Advanced Engineering Surgery
- A field of surgery that aims to make full use of the outcomes produced by engineering in actual surgical practice
- Information-guided surgery
- An approach in which information such as images is used as a guide to direct surgical instruments to the intended location inside the body
- Medical regulatory science
- A field that considers how to evaluate new medical technologies on a scientific basis and bring them to society
ResearchResearch themes
From the viewpoint of how to apply engineering to medicine, the Nambu Lab has carried out research and development on quantitative diagnostic imaging methods, technologies for reducing X-ray radiation exposure, information-guided surgical devices, surgical safety engineering, and transplantation device engineering. The lab takes the position that regulatory science is a methodology for pursuing fair regulation, which is essential for commercializing and spreading technology, and that it requires a philosophical foundation that goes beyond scientific methods alone.
