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 Master’s Course of Radiation Science, education and research developed from faculty education on techniques and theories of information engineering, system engineering, and biological science in image diagnosis and radiation treatment are carried out.

In this field, physiologic functions and pathological analysis from the cellular level to the entire body are the main focus of education and research. Regarding physiologic functions, education and research pertaining to the latest insights and methodology are conducted, including the structure and function of the living body, homeostatic functions, immunoregulation, and various disease states (e.g., leukemia, diabetes, arteriosclerosis). Regarding pathological analysis, in comparison with normal control, education and research on analysis methods from the genetic level to the cellular level, and even to the macroscopic level are carried out. Predicted results, newest insights, current problems and their solutions, latest trends, future issues and development of the pathology of tumors, blood diseases, and infections are also considered. These results lead to development of diagnoses and treatment.

Comprehensive Rehabilitation Science is a clinical application science where research targets various human disabilities and persons with those disabilities. This field is based on physical therapy and occupational therapy. Along with analyzing human movements, mental and daily life activities, and abnormalities from the viewpoint of disorder prevention, evaluation and handling of physical and occupational therapy for the purpose of recovery of motor and mental disabilities and the improvement of life activities are carried out in light of precedent case studies, as well as considering the analysis methods of clinical decision-making in the process.

In this field, the physiologic functions and pathologic analysis pertaining to “life activities” of humans are explored and evidence is sought using scientific analytical methods. New ideas and creative thinking, which are not restricted to a specific field, as well as approaches to further deepen health science, are fostered by coordinating and cooperating beyond the occupational range of contemporary problems in health sciences.
