This group consists of the Image Diagnosis Research Team,
Image Processing Research Team, Quality Control Research Team and Radiological
Protection Research Team, and performs research into the advancement and standardization
of radiation cancer therapy and diagnostic methods.
Major research areas
- Development of software to create integrated
clinical images, determine early therapeutic effects and analyze prognostic
factors using a combination of multiple diagnostic imaging techniques
- Improvement
of treatment plans by using integrated images obtained from advanced dynamic
imaging devices such as 4-dimensional CT
- Research and development on indicators
of quality standards and methods for quality control and assurance of particle
beam and photon beam
therapies and
of diagnosis using radiation
- Evaluation of dose and risk
Advancement and standardization of therapeutic and diagnostic methods based
on investigation of medical radiation exposures in Japan.
