Fukuoka CampusGraduate School and Associate Professor Hidemi Kamezawa from the Graduate Graduate School of Health Sciences of our university received the Bronze President's Award at the 124th Academic Conference of the Japanese Society of Medical Physics.

At the 124th Annual Meeting of the Japan Japanese Society of Medical Physics held at Nagasaki Brick Hall from September 15 (Thu) ~ September 17 (Sat), 2022 Graduate SchoolGraduate School of Health Sciences 2nd year, with Tatsuki Yamashita Faculty of Fukuoka Medical TechnologyDepartment of Radiological Technology Associate Professor Hidemi Kamezawa's presentation won the Bronze Prize of the President's Award. This award is for judging all general topics of this competition, and the University Graduate School Graduate School of Health Sciences Graduate School This will be Yamashita's first time as a student. Ms. Yamashita gave a presentation titled "Dose Distribution Measurement along α Track with Optical Readout Glass GEM Detector." We received this award in recognition of our demonstration that it is possible to measure the dose distribution along the trajectory of α lines flying in various directions through a gas by using a newly developed radiation imaging detector called the optical readout Glass GEM detector. Dose distribution measurement along the α-ray trajectory is important in boron neutron capture therapy and α line content therapy, and future research developments are attracting attention. Hidemi Kamezawa Associate Professor presented a presentation titled "Construction of a Recurrence Prediction Model for Head and Neck Cancer Using Radiomics," and received this award in recognition of the results of constructing a model that enables predicting the recurrence of head and neck cancer before treatment using FDG-PET images and radiomics using the Local Binary Pattern of the images. The results of this research are expected to greatly contribute to the selection of optimal treatment methods (precision medicine) for each patient.
