Since being opened as Japan's first Cancer Specialty Hospital in 1934, we have displayed the principle that "Cancer has a weakpoint" as we carry out our treatment. Presently, we are a modern, 700 bed large scale hospital.

Ever since being founded in 1934 as Japan's first Cancer Specialty Center, we have operated under the principle that "Cancer must have a weakness". Today we are a modern hospital with 700 beds.
Our hospital's director, Dr. Kadota Morito, continues this history and proclaims "This is no longer the era of famous physicians or the hand of God."
From the heroic surgeons capable of performing new and difficult advanced surgeries, to the nurses who work for all the individual patients, Cancer Treatment is certainly on the move. Last year "The patient is the focus of TEAM treatment" is offered at most hospitals. Yet, this hospital takes this to another level.
For instance, Dr. Kanai Yuko, who has performed over 2500 Laproscopic Surgeries and is the leader in that field, has joined our OBGYN.
Laproscopic surgery in OBGYN is, in addition to minimalizing wounds, capable of minimizing the risk of complications, and in certain medical cases, surgery is preferable. My specialty is laproscopic endoscopy, so I tend to lean towards the side of surgery. Yet, here at the Cancer Institute of JCFR, we have a specialty doctor for all sides of the individual patient's treatment. By communicating with each other, we can provide the best medical treatment.
We provide "full-person care" that does not stop at only curing the illness. We attempt to minimize the wounds left on a surgery patient to the limit with the development of our function preservation surgery. When working on the nose, it is said that managing to maintain a little bit of Grellin, a hormone that helps one taste food, leaves one with a far better sense of taste. Research on how to maintain this kind of functionality is being developed globally.
At our hospital, what is called the "Cancer Research Power-up Project" and we are promoting the spread of radiation treatment. Since January of this year, in our medical examination center, we have prepared a "low radiation" CT with roughly the same radiation amount as a normal X-ray,. By this, we have become able to search for previously upper body tumors with CT scans on the same day as upper body endoscopic examinations.
