Hepatitis Virus Testing Business

• Overview

  It is estimated that there are 1.1 million to 1.4 million people type B and 1.9 million to 2.3 million people with type C in Japan. However, since the timing of infection is not clear and there are many subjective symptoms, there is no opportunity to receive treatment at the appropriate time, and there are many infected people who transition to cirrhosis or liver cancer without the person's knowledge. That is the problem.
  Therefore, in Yokohama-shi, we carry out free examination in conduct medical institution in the city to prevent shift to cirrhosis and liver cancer by detecting hepatitis early and performing treatment.
