Frequently asked questions
The public front-end answers core questions about security isolation, data integration, and future expansion.
Proton Beam Therapy
Japan has several internationally renowned proton therapy centers. Specific recommendations need to be matched based on the patient's tumor type.
It typically includes six stages: medical record assessment, hospital application, remote consultation, visa application, travel to Japan for treatment, and follow-up.
It is recommended to prepare complete medical records (surgical records, discharge summaries, chemotherapy records), including diagnostic reports, pathology reports, genetic testing reports (if any), imaging data (CT, MRI), and previous treatment records.
Compared to traditional radiotherapy, proton therapy reduces radiation to normal tissues, but side effects such as fatigue, decreased appetite, and radiation dermatitis may still occur, depending on the treatment area. Doctors will prescribe medication based on the symptoms to alleviate them.
Proton therapy irradiation usually does not cause pain. Patients simply need to maintain a fixed position as instructed by the medical staff during treatment, and most people will not experience significant discomfort.
The physical effect of standard X-ray radiotherapy is 1, while proton therapy is 1.1. However, the main advantage of protons is reducing damage to normal tissues and lowering the risk of long-term side effects. Additionally, beyond local tumor control, the potential immune-activating effect of proton therapy has received increasing attention in recent years. By utilizing this advantage, significant synergistic effects are expected.
Health Checkup
Japan has several internationally renowned proton therapy centers. Specific recommendations need to be matched based on the patient's tumor type.
If the checkup includes gastrointestinal examinations such as a gastroscopy or colonoscopy, dietary control and pre-examination preparation are required as instructed. Specific dietary restrictions and precautions will be informed to the client in advance based on the examination items. Please prepare accordingly following medical advice.
Some examination results are available on the day of the checkup, and the doctor will provide an on-site explanation. For obvious suspicious lesions found in imaging tests, the doctor will also provide an early warning. The complete checkup report requires comprehensive diagnosis by multiple doctors before a written report is issued, and the timeframe usually varies by hospital.
Yes. If the checkup results indicate the need for further examination or treatment, the checkup center can recommend an appropriate medical institution based on the condition. If the client already has a preferred or designated hospital, our company can also assist in arranging expert consultations and subsequent medical appointments.
In-Person or Remote Proxy Consultation
Complete and detailed medical records must be provided, including diagnostic reports, surgical records, discharge summaries, chemotherapy records, pathology reports, genetic testing reports (if any), imaging data (CT, MRI, etc.), and previous treatment records, so that the doctor can conduct a comprehensive assessment.
The consultation results are usually available on the day of the remote consultation. If the hospital's assessment considers the patient suitable for treatment, and the patient has the willingness to travel to Japan for treatment, the procedures for receiving medical care in Japan can begin immediately.
Different hospitals have different admission standards and treatment directions. If the consulting hospital does not accept the patient for the time being, you can still try applying for consultations at other hospitals based on the condition, seeking more suitable treatment plans and medical resources to obtain the best treatment advice.
According to hospital regulations, some allow the patient to participate in person. There are also cases where a proxy consultation by an agency is required.
