Even using immune checkpoint blockade, objective response rate is up to 30%. We hope that outcomes of our study contribute for improvement both of early diagnosis and treatment of advanced melanoma. You can continue the research in our laboratory or study abroad. Because the our research themes are linked to medical treatment, the knowledge obtained in the research is often useful for clinical practice. There are some members in our laboratory who continue both the research and clinical practice after the graduation.Early recognition by less-invasive examination; then, expecting complete cure without func-tional loss by less-invasive therapy.

Can you diagnose ?Curative radiation therapypreserving organ functionsSummary of ActivityOur main projects are the diagnostic method, evaluation method of disease status and new treatment method of malignant melanoma. Because progressed melanoma is difficult to cure, early diagnosis and treatment are very important for patients. Sometimes, it is difficult to distinguish the early melanoma from the benign pigmented nevus. We aim to establish the new diagnosis methods using photographs and a noninvasive method using the nail pieces.Today, immune checkpoint inhibitors（ICI） and molecular target therapy are of-ten used for the patients suffered from progressed melanoma. We search for ICI effect predictors. We also develop virotherapy againt melanoma in collaboration with the Institute of Medical Scinence, The University of Tokyo.Summary of ActivityWe study for developing novel diagnostic and therapeutic methods to solve clinical problems in our department. The main study themes are early diagnosis, differential diagnosis, and pathophysiological analysis by diagnostic imaging, developing novel methods in diagnostic imaging, interventional radiology (IVR), and radiation therapy. Every clinical study is conducted in cooperation with other clinical departments.DermatologyRadiologyChallenging for next generation of melanoma treatmentDiagnosis & Cure
