FUJIFILM India announced the inauguration of its flagship health screening centre NURA which focuses on the early detection of cancer and other lifestyle diseases. NURA is a collaboration between FUJIFILM India and Dr Kutty’s Healthcare, an institution with deep roots in the healthcare space.
The NURA centre is equipped with Fujifilm’s various medical devices capable of providing high-definition images including CT scans and mammography systems. The medical IT systems of NURA centres are based on AI technology that is designed to support doctors, to carry out screening and tests for cancer and lifestyle diseases. Considering the needs of the financial capital of India that are driven by speed, efficiency, and accuracy, NURA centres accomplish the procedure of complete body screening in 120 minutes followed by a meeting with a specialist doctor who explains the results of the screening.
Koji Wada, MD, Fujifilm India said, “Our top priority has always been to ensure the highest health standards in every region where we operate. We have a special connection with Mumbai and fulfilling our promise of the world-class Fujifilm NURA centre was most awaited. Our effort with this centre is to provide a central location to the whole of Mumbai so that it is easily accessible to all. I am sure that this state-of-the-art facility will support strengthening the early disease detection landscape of Mumbai and its adjoining areas. With support from corporates and individuals, we will be able to fight serious illnesses by diagnosing them at early stages and increasing the life expectancy to a larger extent”
Located at Worli in Mumbai, NURA health screening centre will tap into insights gained through health screening services. There will also be a workflow that uses a wristband with a QR code to manage the progress of each visitor to shorten waiting time for individual tests.
Dr Tausif Ahmed Thangalvadi, Medical Director, NURA, said, “As the complexities in lifestyle have increased, we have become complacent towards our health and wellbeing. It is important that health screening should be a regular part of everyone’s life as there are so many diseases that can be treated when diagnosed at the right time. With the state-of-the-art facilities and technologically advanced equipment manufactured by Fujifilm, we aim at providing the best services and initiating a change in the habits of people in the country.”
