Diagnostic Radiology and Radiation Oncology
Overview
Diagnostic Radiology & Radiation Oncology consists of three sections, diagnostic imaging/interventional radiology (IVR), radiation oncology, and nuclear medicine, which includes functional imaging such as positron emission tomography (PET). In this field, there are marked advances in instruments for diagnosis and high-precision radiotherapy due to the recent remarkable progress in computer technologies as well as information and communication technology (ICT). This has resulted in a huge contribution to the progress of clinical medicine, and now the role of radiology is evolving. To achieve more advancement in radiology, it is important to introduce new generation people in this field. We welcome variety of young students interested in creating something new. This field is very open to the power and innovation of young students, allowing them to fully bloom their abilities.
