Quantification of physiological functions
Quantification of functional imaging can be degraded by limited spatial resolution, incomplete processing, subject�fs motions and so on. To improve the quantification, we are developing methodologies for motion correction and image-processing.
Computer-aided virtual clinical trial for efficient development of radioligands
Computer-aided virtual clinical trial is a kind of simulation techniques for human body but its application have great potential as before having clinical trial in many ways. We try to develop the system for efficient development of radioligands.
Numerical observer model for prediction of diagnostic ability in medical imaging
Lesion-detection ability is one of important diagnostic factors for medical imaging. We try to predict the impact of introducing new technologies by numerical observer model.
Radiation dosimetry in both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes
Internal radiation exposure in nuclear medicine is inevitable and have to be estimated for risk-benefit management. Human radiation dose suffered from nuclear medicine can be estimated from time-series measurement of the biodistribution of the injected radioligand. We aim to develop noninvasive methodologies further practical applications.
