Saitama City Hospital. More advanced.
More patient-friendly.
In December 2019, Saitama City Hospital reopened as a new facility with the mission to continue providing safe and secure medical care to 1.3 million citizens.
To support advanced healthcare, the hospital installed two of Canon Medical Systems´ newest MRI scanners. MRI captures images of the inside of the body using magnetic fields and electromagnetic waves without exposure to radiation. In less-advanced systems, one of the drawbacks is that in order to obtain clear images for diagnosis, the patient must remain in a confined and noisy area for a lengthy period of time while the scanning takes place. Canon Medical MRI scanners mitigate these issues by providing a more spacious, open and quiet examination space, and implementing the world´s first Deep Learning Reconstruction technology for removing noise from images. The high-definition images produced by our MRI scanners facilitate more accurate diagnosis, shorter exam times and less burden on the patient.
Hand in hand with the new Saitama City Hospital, Canon is contributing to the provision of more advanced and patient-friendly medical care.
