President's Message

Thank you very much for your continued support.

Since 1914, when we began development of the first X-ray tubes in Japan, our company has been furthering our medical device business through collaboration with medical professionals for over 100 years. In 2003, in order to respond to the rapidly changing environment surrounding medicine, we consolidated our development, manufacturing, sales, and service functions and created a business management system that integrated manufacturing and sales. This year marks the 20th anniversary of the creation of that structure.

By following our Made for Life philosophy over these years, our vision to be a company that contributes to medical care has become even stronger and clearer. We are committed to providing value by working together with medical professionals to overcome the challenges of medical care. We use our latest innovations to provide the technology, products, services, and support that medical facilities require, while receiving clinical feedback and advancing our technology. In this way, through partnerships with many medical professionals around the world, we have been contributing to medical care that protects precious life.

This year, we launched our “Global Marketing Center” within Canon Healthcare USA which was established in January. We will build a stronger global network of medical professionals which will aid in development of products and proposal of solutions that match the latest medical trends and clinical needs. We remain committed to our Made for Life philosophy and will continue to grow as a company that creates additional value and supports the future of medical care.
