The Hospital provides optimal treatment for various types of cancer, including refractory cancers, using state-of-the-art technology and the advanced skills and expertise of our specialists. Our basic concept of care is not only to treat cancer itself, but to deliver holistic health care by approaching the patient as a total person, offering comprehensive treatment while giving top priority to each patient’s quality of life. Multi-disciplinary cancer treatment focusing on each patientOur core policy at the Cancer Institute Hospital is to provide multi-disciplinary care. The Hospital was the first in Japan to adopt the multi-disciplinary approach to cancer treatment. The care of individual patients is discussed by the Cancer Board, a collaborative meeting of our cancer specialists including internists, surgeons, radiation oncologists, pathologists, nurses, pharmacists, and nutritionists. The aim of the Cancer Board is to draw upon the expertise and experience of specialists to provide the best possible treatment for each patient, while preventing medical error and avoiding unnecessary interventions.Creation of next-generation cancer care through close collaboration with research instituteThe Hospital has been able to deliver high-quality cancer care through close collaboration with JFCR’s research sections.
