Message from the Head of the Department
Okayama University Hospital Minimally Invasive Therapy (MIT) Center actively supports the safe introduction and spread of endoscopic surgery. Endoscopic surgery has the great advantage of causing less pain, shortening the length of hospital stays, and allowing patients to return to work and society more quickly. MIT Center also contributes to the safe and efficient practice of robot-assisted surgery, which has been covered by insurance for many surgical procedures.
Management Policy
The MIT Center is made up of specialists in gastrointestinal surgery and hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery, and is responsible for the diagnosis, treatment, and research of endoscopic surgery and robot surgery in their respective fields. We aim to safely spread endoscopic surgery, which requires advanced skills, and practices high-level surgery. The department is also actively working to introduce new surgical techniques such as robot-assisted surgery. Through education for residents and fellows and the holding of academic seminars, we are developing a wide range of human resources and producing doctors who will become leaders in endoscopic surgery.
