The lab uses X-ray, CT, and MRI to image the inside of the body and investigate changes in bone and muscle.

Associate Professor Takashima's lab conducts research using imaging equipment used in everyday clinical care, such as plain X-ray, CT, and MRI. Guided by the idea that "Good research starts with good questions," the lab logically investigates what is needed to obtain images that are useful for diagnosis. Combining this with image analysis, the lab also pursues basic research on bone and muscle metabolism, aging, and inflammation, and puts emphasis on translational research that returns the results to clinical practice.

A lab that uses simulation to predict the effects of radiation on the body.

The lab of Lecturer Yusuke Matsuya studies the effects of radiation on living organisms using computer simulations and theoretical models. The lab develops and applies PHITS (Particle and Heavy Ion Transport code System), a code that calculates the transport of radiation. The lab builds models that predict the whole sequence from radiation exposure to DNA damage and later responses such as chromosomal aberrations, with the aim of applying them to radiation protection and therapy. The results of this research are incorporated into PHITS and provided to PHITS users around the world.
