Diagnosis & Treatment
Early detection and patient-friendly treatment that imposes
no stresses on the body is our ideal target in disease
diagnosis and treatment. It will also reduce healthcare costs.
At Toshiba, we will make progress by providing more
patient-friendly diagnostic imaging systems offering even
higher image quality. We also aim to create speedy, simple
means of testing that do not stress the body, and we will
continue to provide new technologies, such as DNA tester
and breath analyzer that measure concentrations of disease-
related trace gases in exhaled breath. In treatment, our
heavy-ion radiotherapy systems exemplify our efforts to
deliver more patient-friendly cancer treatment.
320-row CT detector
The unrivaled 320-row area detector can capture details of entire
organs, such as the heart or brain, in just one, 0.275-second long
rotation.
Current Detection-type DNA Chips
20-30 items can be simultaneously tested in
less than two hours with the instrument and
the DNA chip card.
The actual manual operating time is
approximately 20 minutes, so it is possible to
make significant time savings compared to
similar types of equipment.
Respiratory-gated irradiation technology for heavy-ion beam
Our proprietary Respiratory-gated irradiation and 3D high-speed
scanning technologies realize heavy-ion beam irradiation of
moving organs, extending treatment to more patients.
Quantum cascade laser
By taking advantage of the mid-infrared band that cannot be oscillated
in conventional semiconductor lasers, it is possible to carry out highly
accurate gas analysis of exhaled breath and indoor and outdoor air in a
short period of time.
