The future of Kanazawa will
change the world

Our department, Cardiovascular Medicine, has produced lots of Cardiovascular specialists who can independently think, take action, and sympathize with people around us by insatiable challenges.
We also tackle on producing better working environment and improving quality of medical learnings.
We have missions that we can only do for everyone to live better.

Welcome to our website.
I’m Masayuki Takamura, Professor and Director of Cardiovascular Medicine, Kanazawa University School of Medical Sciences. On January 1, 2019, all numbering departments of general internal medicine in Kanazawa University were united and re-organized to organ-based departments. For the future development and advancement, we are working together on clinical medicine, research, and education.

Clinical

Kanazawa University Hospital, Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, is the “last bastion” in Hokuriku Medical Area. We conduct evidence-based and front-line medical care for patients with complex cardiovascular diseases. Also, we continuously brush our clinical skills and develop new medicines to treat patients. At the same time, we provide comprehensive treatments for each patient through the Hokuriku Heart Center Conference once a week with specialists in Cardiovascular Surgery, Radiology Department, and ME Center.

In addition, we are also focusing on the development of novel and advanced medicines and medical devices based on results form basic research. We continue to challenge the establishment and optimization of tailor-made precision medicine.

Field

  • Interventional Cardiology
  • Comprehensive Heart Failure Management
  • Arrhythmia and Catheter Ablation
  • Pulmonary Hypertension and Congenital Heart Diseases
  • Cardiovascular Regeneration Medicine
  • Prevention and Treatment of Atherosclerosis
  • Translational Medicine and Multidisciplinary Cardiovascular Treatment
  • Cardiomyopathies
  • Cardio-Oncology
  • Echocardiography

research

Research

We conduct basic, clinical, and translational research in a wide range of medical fields. We provide guidance with respect for each researcher’s suitability and wishes. We hope that many young researchers will study abroad at least once as physician-scientists to expand the range of clinical medicine. To date, many teachers in this department have experienced studying abroad in pioneering research institutes in various fields in United States, Canada, Netherlands, France, and Australia. After returning to Japan, they have been working actively as leaders in their own research field using their experience.

In particular:

  • Molecular Biology and Pathology
  • Population Cardiovascular Genetics and Precision Medicine
  • Advanced Intelligence / IoT Medical Application
  • Autonomic Nerve Function Analysis
  • Adipose-derived Regeneration Cell Research
  • Comprehensive Genetic Analysis in Arrhythmogenic Diseases and Cardiomyopathies

We are actively promoting many research projects.
Let’s aim to become physician-scientists in Cardiovascular Medicine to change it for the better.

Education

We provide seamless education and guidance to cultivate physicians with holistic medical care with kindness in every stage: undergraduates in School of Medicine; research of Ph.D. course in Graduate School of Medicine; junior and senior residency training in internal medicine; and fellow training in Cardiovascular Medicine. Cardiovascular medicine progresses rapidly and will continue to accelerate. Thus we must continuously acquire enormous amount of knowledge and skills. Under such circumstances, we let young members have their own goals to achieve in each stage such as: “to master cardiovascular intervention”; “to become the leading expert in catheter ablation for refractory arrhythmias”; “to be a scientific physician by learning medical statistics”; or “to be a specialist of echocardiography”. We hope that they grow up with incessant “Research Mind” in both clinical and research settings.

In addition, we cultivate a comprehensive cardiovascular physician by collaborating with other medical departments under the new internal medicine fellowship program.
