Introduction

The department provides a vast array of modern equipment for teaching and research. These laboratories and equipment facilitate better study and research in radiological science for both our faculty and students. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2019, the department established a simulated virus pandemic lab in 2020, it was the first teaching site in Taiwan for radiographers.
