The “Comprehensive Cancer Center” had served as a center for treating patients with malignancies. With a view to achieving further developments in cancer therapy, the conventional “Comprehensive Cancer Center” was dis-solved into the “Shinshu Cancer Center” in April 2013. The “Shinshu Cancer Center” provides comprehensive cancer therapy, supportive care and cancer registration.Prefectural Cancer Treatment CenterTreatment Information Sharing via the Shinshu Medical Net using ICTSharing regional treatment information (with patient approval) with multiple medical institutions using ICT*, we work with the relevant medical institutions to ensure a clear understanding of testing, diagnosis, treatment plans, and the overview of treatment plans, and utilize this information in the treatment provided at the Univer-sity Hospital. The goal is safe and advanced medical treatment, and better quality treatment for the community as a whole.Shinshu Cancer Center Outpatient Treatment Rooms* Information & Communications TechnologyTOPICSAhead of the rest of the country, the Center was desig-nated an Advanced Emergency & Critical Care Center in 2007. The center offers tertiary medical care for patients suffering from specific disorders or multiple traumas such as serious burn injuries and acute poisoning.Since Shinshu University Hospital serves as a Doctor-Heli base hospital, it carries the responsibility of being the nal destination in the prefecture for emergency rescue missions. The facility’s performance record shows it has attained the high-est standard in the entire country. The Doctor Heli Program, launched in October 2011, is also successful, having been utilized 2,600-plus times as of March 2017.On September 1, 2015, the helicopter was equipped with an incubator for inter-hospital transportation of neonates. We expect that helicopter transportation will continue to improve lifesaving rates and reduce sequelae in neonates.Emergency & Critical Care Center of the Highest National StandardsEnhancing hospital functionsWe are currently building a Comprehensive Advanced Medical Center, which will offer robotic surgery, hybrid surgery and other advanced surgical methods and ap-proaches while also bolstering existing frameworks by providing centralized management of patients with se-rious illnesses/injuries and other benefits.
