A world-leading system developed in Japan to detect liver cancer is to be introduced in Thailand, where the disease is a major health issue.
Fujifilm Corp has been working with the Thai Association for the Study of the Liver and the Health Ministry on the system, which could be introduced in fiscal 2024.
The Japanese imaging and health care solutions firm is hoping the screening system could be included in Thailand's clinical practice guidelines so that it will eventually be covered by insurance.
