President's Message
I would like to thank you for using our products and services. Your continued support is deeply appreciated.
Our beloved cherry blossoms are in full bloom here in Japan. It has coincided with the relaxation of the government's request to wear masks as a COVID-19 prevention measure, and for the first time in several years we see many people strolling around without masks, enjoying the blossoms. As our company has also adopted a policy in which personal decisions regarding mask-wearing in the workplace are respected, we are again seeing the cheerful smiles of employees.
This April, we welcomed a total of 143 new recruits. For the first time in four years, we were able to hold a face-to-face initiation ceremony, bringing everyone together and with no restrictions on admission to the venue. I expect our new employees to have a deep understanding of the meaning behind our management slogan "Made for Life", grasp the challenges facing healthcare in a changing environment, find solutions, and provide new value.

Aiming to achieve "high quality medical care for everyone", we are conducting research and development of products that support smooth workflow, quick decision-making, optimal quality medical care for each individual patient by utilizing AI linked with cutting-edge diagnostic imaging solutions, and integrated healthcare IT that bundles clinical information.
For our diagnostic imaging systems, Precise IQ Engine (PIQE) is introduced in our CT systems. PIQE is an ultra-high resolution image reconstruction technology that was developed using deep learning technology, with Canon's high-resolution images used as the teaching data. With PIQE, detailed understanding of lesions as well as healthy structures is possible. This technology is now introduced in our MRI systems, allowing higher resolution without the need for longer examination times, and more reliable diagnosis regardless of the clinical department.
We will continue to provide solutions that reflect our desire to contribute to improving the lives of all patients by offering technologies and products that are clinically valuable to our customers and to patients as we face the challenges of healthcare.
