Kanazawa Advanced Medical Center
About
Medical Corporation Kanazawa Advanced Medical Center, located in Takaramachi, Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture, is a medical institution that lists surgery as its specialty but is renowned for offering cutting-edge PET examinations. At its core is high-precision nuclear medicine diagnostic imaging using PHILIPS' digital PET/CT system, addressing a wide range of clinical needs from early cancer detection to treatment response assessment. Notably, in addition to standard FDG-PET examinations, the center performs advanced tests such as Amyloid PET/CT, which is gaining attention for dementia diagnosis, and 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT, useful for diagnosing prostate cancer metastasis—procedures that remain relatively uncommon in Japan. Since its establishment in 2010, the center has operated under the philosophy of returning world-class technology to regional healthcare, serving as a vital hub for precision medicine through close collaboration with local medical institutions. The facility features barrier-free design, dedicated parking, and accepts credit cards and electronic payments, creating an accessible environment for a wide range of patients. Consultations are available on weekdays only, with closures on weekends, national holidays, Golden Week, and August 15th.
