Radiologic technology training required a substantial amount of practice. The traditional teaching approach includes in-hospital placement along with theory classes. During the COVID-19 outbreaks, clinical rotations become impossible. Direct contact with patients raises safety concerns for staff and students. The COVID-19 pandemic created unprecedented challenges for medical universities worldwide. We developed in-house simulation software that can be used for training in radiologic technology. Our preliminary results yielded good efficacy of this novel teaching approach in training radiologic technology students.

Introduction: Depression and anxiety are prevalent comorbidities in individuals with chronic diseases, significantly impairing their quality of life and complicating disease management. Curcumin, derived from turmeric (Curcuma longa), has garnered attention for its potential therapeutic benefits in alleviating symptoms of depression and anxiety. However, its specific effects on depressive or anxiety symptoms associated with chronic diseases (DACD) remain unclear.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) remains a significant clinical challenge, characterized by rapid kidney dysfunction with potential progression to chronic kidney disease. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) offer promising therapeutic potential due to their regenerative, immunomodulatory and anti‑inflammatory capabilities. Despite these advantages, clinical translation is hampered by low MSCs retention, limited cell survival and suboptimal secretion of therapeutic factors in injured renal tissues.

Postoperative bleeding (POB) is a major complication following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), leading to significant morbidity and potential mortality. This minireview focuses on the prevention and management strategies for POB, synthesizing current evidence on surgical techniques, perioperative management, and postoperative interventions. Effective prevention strategies include the use of regional vessel wrapping, optimal pancreatic anastomosis, and meticulous intraoperative hemostasis.

Diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) are practical benchmarks for optimizing patient radiation exposure in medical imaging. In Japan, national DRLs, including those for nuclear medicine together and other radiological procedures, were first established in 2015 and revised in 2020. In this study, we revised the DRL values of nuclear medicine for the establishment of DRLs2025, based on data collected from institutions nationwide throughout Japan.

Background: Radiotherapy (RT) remains a cornerstone in the treatment of thoracic malignancies; however, approximately one-third of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) develop Grade ≥ 2 radiation-induced lung injury (RILI). Despite its clinical significance, no pharmacologic standard of care has been established for RILI. Pirfenidone, an antifibrotic agent with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, has demonstrated potential in preclinical models of RILI.
