Department of Kampo Medicine was established at Hiroshima University in December 2022.This will be the third department of Kampo Medicine in Japan. Kampo medicine is a traditional Japanese medicine that originated from ancient Chinese medicine, but has developed through the formation of unique theories based on more than 1,500 years of clinical experience. Several clinical trials and basic researches are ongoing to evaluate the efficacy of Kampo treatment for intractable diseases such as lymphatic malformation. We also have conducted researches on Kampo diagnosis, attempting to automate the diagnosis of diseases through machine learning. We hope that the common sense of modern medicine will be rewritten by the essence and wisdom of Kampo medicine.
