In principle, this field deals with the medical technologies related to radiology. Due to the drastic technological innovation and proliferation of optics, radio waves, and ultrasonic technologies, we strive to be a 21 st century pioneer in these fields.

Coursework in this department starts with safety control and effective use of radiation. We integrate two aspects into our courses: biomedical engineering, which applies a variety of physical properties such as sound, heat, light, electricity and magnetism to the human body for diagnosis, and computer-based medical information science, such as image diagnostics and patient treatment planning. These courses help research and develop effective technologies for early diagnosis and patient treatment of various diseases including malignant diseases.

Our goal is to establish and develop a solid foundation in medical physics as well as in medical engineering. At the same time, we aim to develop professionals who can be leaders in Japan and in the world. Our department has been involved in the training of radiology technicians globally over twenty years and is well known for its international cooperation.

We welcome young spirits who have a wide-ranging education and well-rounded character in addition to keen scientific insight.
