New Full-Body Cancer MRI Screening Service Launching in November 2025

Introducing Full-Body Cancer MRI Screening

Sakurajyuji Group is set to launch a full-body cancer MRI screening service on November 4, 2025, at the Medimesse Sakurajyuji Preventive Medical Center located in central Kumamoto City. This initiative is part of our ongoing efforts to enhance well-being and address healthcare in the context of living a fulfilling life in this age of 100-year lifespans.

In Japan, cancer remains the leading cause of death, with approximately 1 million new cases diagnosed each year. The direct link between early detection and improved treatment outcomes highlights the urgent need for accessible screening methods. While PET scans are effective, issues relating to drug administration, time constraints, and costs have led to an increasing demand for a more convenient screening option. The full-body cancer MRI screening is designed to bridge this gap.

What is Full-Body Cancer MRI Screening?

This groundbreaking approach utilizes MRI and CT technology for comprehensive evaluation of the body, allowing for the detection of possible cancerous areas and metastasis with greater ease than traditional methods. The key features of the MRI screening include:

- No need for drug administration, minimizing patient discomfort
- Freedom from dietary restrictions

Limited-Time Offer

To promote this service, Medimesse Sakurajyuji is providing a limited-time course aimed at 40 individuals, offering screening at an exclusive rate to encourage early detection. The goal is to make this advanced screening accessible while raising community awareness about the importance of proactive health measures. By integrating a no-drug, no-dietary restriction, and relatively brief screening procedure, we aim to enhance the local population's longevity and health.
