Research

This laboratory involves research on computerized processing of images yielded from nuclear medicine tests (PET, SPECT (Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography)), CT, MRI and so on aimed at precisely collecting medical information from such visual data. Regarding tumor images, research is made on estimation of tumor malignancy and volume, estimation of the periphery of lesions, estimation of appropriate range of irradiation, correction of artifacts on images arising from respiratory motions and cardiac beats, and so on. Regarding images of myocardium and brain, compartment model analysis is carried out on serial dynamic images following a dose of contrast material or radioisotope for the purpose of quantitative evaluation of ischemic lesions and quantitative analysis of tissue blood flow, oxygen consumption, etc. Artificial Intelligence technology with Deep learning is also adopted for analyzing medical image data. Talents capable of developing programs for achievement of these goals will be cultivated.
