The Affiliated Hospital of Tokyo University in Japan, boasts a history of 160 years.
This hospital, originating from the Edo era, has always occupied the top of the pyramid of Japanese medicine.
Even in the world of medicine, Tokyo University's Affiliated Hospital holds an important place. Many new technologies originate from here, but it's just that people don't know about it.
The technology of arthroscopy for example, originated here. The USA and Europe once sent doctors for training here before taking the technology of arthroscopy back to America and Europe, where it slowly developed.
Tumor infrared fluorescent imaging technology also originated here. The world's first case of liver cancer surgery using ICG fluorescence labelling was born in this hospital. Then, they developed the infrared 3D navigation system for liver cancer, pushing surgical operations of tumors towards precise digitization.
