Innovating for a Data-Driven Healthcare Future : Hitachi

The global healthcare industry is transforming at a pace never seen before. A burst of innovation across genomics, biotechnology, robotics, connected care, the internet of things (IoT) and clinical data integration is delivering profound breakthroughs. Hitachi’s goal of digitization is to co-create with healthcare organizations to achieve positive outcomes for patients, improved population health for communities and decreased cost burdens for payers to ensure a better quality of life.

Why a World Without the Fear of Cancer is Within Reach

Researchers are now able to analyze entire genomes, allowing them to better interpret biological data and gain new insights into the understanding of diseases. What’s more, advancements in our understanding of genomic healthcare have the potential to create better healthcare outcomes for patients, improving quality of life while also reducing treatment costs.

Leveraging SaMD Applications to Improve Patient Care and Reduce Costs

One of the most exciting developments in healthcare is the emergence of Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) as a more convenient and cost-effective means to deliver superior care to the tens of millions of people worldwide who suffer from various health conditions.

Pioneering New Diagnostic Discoveries, Techniques and Treatments for Brain Injuries

Historically, advances in healthcare have progressed slowly because so much research is conducted in isolation, and results may not become widely known for decades. But thanks to a unique collaboration between life sciences organizations and digital solution providers, all that is changing.

Is Data Management the Key to a Healthier Future?

In a world increasingly driven by data, there may be no industry where the collection and interpretation of information carries such high stakes as healthcare. Hospitals generate huge amounts of data each time a patient walks through their doors – and how they manage said data can have a very tangible impact on patient outcomes.

The Gift Of Improved quality of life

Cancer is, unfortunately, one of the prevalent diseases in the United States. Treating tumors with traditional radiation therapy can cause other risks by exposing healthy tissue to unnecessary radiation.

How to See the Whole Elephant

The United States enjoys some of the finest healthcare in the world, yet many Americans still suffer with chronic illnesses. Autoimmune diseases affect 23.5 million to 50 million Americans, depending on which diseases are counted.1 And the number of Americans with Alzheimer's is expected to increase from 5.7 million today to 14 million by 2050.

Connecting the Healthcare Enterprise

Our hospitals are filled with a plethora of information. From patients’ medical records to test results to diagnosis results, data connectivity has become an essential part of the healthcare industry. Hitachi Healthcare along with its Hitachi group company partners are combining their expertise in healthcare and the Internet of Things (IoT) technology to harness the power of this data more effectively and efficiently.

Physicians and Patients Advocate for Proton Therapy Cancer Treatment

Worldwide cancer cases are projected to increase by 50% by 2030 even as the overall cancer death rate declines. As the number of cancer survivors grows, the quality of life for survivors has become of paramount importance to the medical community.

The Cutting Edge of Cancer Treatment

With Proton Beam Therapy, Hitachi is aiding the global fight against cancer with innovative technology that improves patient quality of life. By precisely targeting tumors with protons, doctors in the U.S. can help patients beat cancer without damaging healthy tissue.

The TM Series: going beyond the classroom

When we say the word “microscope” where do you picture one? Most likely, your mind takes you to a classroom where students utilize microscopes daily. Did you know that the TM Series microscope, a compact, benchtop scanning electron microscope, is playing an integral role in some essential industries such as agriculture, aircraft manufacturing, and pharmaceutical manufacturing?
