Facilities and Equipment Used by the Department of Radiological Technology

Equipped with the latest inspection equipment used in the medical field, we will conduct practical learning

It is fully equipped with various latest inspection equipment used in actual clinical sites. By these equipment, it is possible to acquire biological image information using radiation, magnetism, ultrasound, etc., and to develop knowledge about diagnosis・treatment skills, and practical skills. It also aims to develop accurate knowledge about human body effects such as radiation and electromagnetic waves and safety management.

CT device

CT device

It is a device that takes a tomographic photograph of the human body using X-rays. At our university, we use the latest equipment called 16-row CT to construct 3D images from the data obtained from the whole body and learn the image processing necessary for clinical practice.

MRI device

MRI device

It is a device that creates images using magnets and radio waves. Our device is a permanent magnet type with a magnetic field strength of 0.25 Tesla. Radiological technologists also handle all types of diagnostic imaging equipment that do not use radiation.

X-ray equipment

X-ray equipment

This equipment performs the most basic simple imaging with X-rays performed by radiological technologist, which is also called general radiography. Chest, abdomen and bone imaging using this equipment. At our university, we have installed three of these devices.

X-ray TV fluoroscope

X-ray TV fluoroscope

It is a device that photographs the digestive tract such as the stomach and intestines. Using a contrast medium such as barium, the movement of the digestive tract is displayed as a video in real time, and the captured image is digitally processed.

Ultrasonic device

Ultrasonic device

This is a test that takes a tomographic image using high-frequency ultrasonic waves that are inaudible to humans and examines the condition inside the body (cervical, abdominal, heart, blood vessel, etc.). Since it is taken without using X-rays, it is an inspection without worrying about radiation exposure.

Mammography device

Mammography device

An X-ray machine dedicated to breasts. In breast cancer screening, the most important and detailed technique is required in recent breast cancer screening, which is also called mammography.

Work station

Work station

In order to make the image taken by the image inspection device easier to diagnose, this workstation is used to process the digital data sent from each device to create an image with high diagnostic ability.
