Guidance on various health (examination) examinations, etc.

We recommend that you have regular health checkups.

Regular medical examinations lead to early detection and early treatment of diseases such as cancer.
Due to concerns about infections such as the new coronavirus infection, refraining from receiving medical examinations such as cancer screening may delay the discovery of the disease.
At medical institutions and venues where medical examinations are performed, we are taking measures to prevent infection, such as disinfection and physical condition checks.
Extend your healthy life expectancy by having regular health checkups.
