Graduate School of Health Sciences

Health Sciences（Doctoral Course）

Department of Radiation Science

Radiation has been applied in the medical field for over 100 years, and its importance in diagnoses and treatment in the modern medicine is extremely important. Radiation technology has continued to develop through the advancements of hardware and software in equipment engineering, and supports modern medicine. In the Doctoral Course of Radiology Science, education and research are carried out so that students can learn the basics as researchers on advanced techniques and theories on information engineering, system engineering, and biological science as related to image diagnosis and radiation therapy.
