Shimadzu at Medical Imaging Exhibition - Solving Challenges Together at ITEM 2023 Japan
Shimadzu Corporation and Shimadzu Medical Systems Corporation showcased their latest technologies and various medical systems at the International Technical Exhibition of Medical Imaging 2023 (ITEM 2023), held from April 14 to 16 at the PACIFICO Yokohama Exhibition Hall in Yokohama City, Japan.
Here is a brief overview of the exhibition.
ITEM 2023 and Shimadzu Booth
The ITEM 2023 is an exhibition organized as part of the Japan Radiology Congress 2023 (JRC2023) and managed by the Japan Medical Imaging and Radiological Systems Industries Association (JIRA). The main theme of the JRC this year was “Be a Game Changer in Medicine with Radiology.” Over 140 companies exhibited, and 17,064 visitors attended the event.
Solving Challenges Together
Based on the slogan “Evolution, Innovation, Transformation - Solving Challenges Together,” the Shimadzu exhibit focused on four areas: improving examination efficiency, making the invisible visible, reducing operator workloads, and Advanced Healthcare solutions, based on Shimadzu's core technologies in analytical science and medical diagnostic imaging.
Shimadzu showed various patient-friendly and operator-friendly products which help shorten examination times. In addition, we demonstrated our latest Advanced Healthcare technologies which are used in research and development for the prevention, very early diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of diseases such as cancer and lifestyle-related illnesses.
The new EZy-Rad Pro radiography system was also launched at the booth
In the booth, visitors were able to move the mobile X-ray system and experience its responsiveness and mobility for themselves. They used our 3D simulation tool, Room Layout Planner to help them imagine how the product could be placed in their own X-ray room environment.
Comment from the Person in Charge
The total number of visitors to ITEM increased by 53 % from the previous year, indicating that participating in actual exhibitions is starting to make a comeback. The Shimadzu booth attracted a large number of visitors who were able to get hands-on experience with our new products and technologies. I believe that they were able to see and experience the new clinical value that Shimadzu offers.
