The lab supports healthcare in areas short of specialists through telemedicine and the training of medical professionals.
AboutAbout the lab
Bringing university specialist care to regional hospitals.
The lab is an endowed department involving groups from cardiology, gastroenterology, pulmonology, otolaryngology and head and neck surgery, psychiatry, dermatology, and clinical epidemiology.
Clinical departments of Kyoto University Hospital regularly create opportunities to bring the latest medical knowledge to doctors at public hospitals in regions with few or no specialists, with the aim of helping to train specialists locally.
By working with the rich variety of cases in these regions, the university's specialists also aim to maintain and improve not only their own specialty but also their general diagnostic skills.
