The Olympus Medical Business: Profile and Perspectives, 1950-Present

The Olympus Medical Business The Olympus Medical Business: Profile and Perspectives, 1950-Present The Olympus Medical Business Date of issuance : October 2017. Edit : Olympus Corporation PR/IR Department Introduction Olympus developed the world’s first practical gastrocamera in 1950. This innovative device contributed greatly in establishing methods for the early diagnosis of stomach cancer, a kind of cancer that had previously been a leading cause of death in Japan. Since then, Olympus has strived to make further developments with the use of endoscopes for various forms of examination and treatment. Advancements in “minimally invasive therapy” are continuously being made within the field of medicine. Surgeries that in the past were operated by opening the abdomen can now be performed using an endoscope inserted through a small incision, in most cases leaving minimal scarring only. As a result, the patient’s pain and suffering is reduced and quality of life (QOL) is significantly improved. By publishing “The Olympus Medical Business” we hope to provide our investors, shareholders and the public with a general understanding of the medical business of Olympus. We will also introduce recent trends in endoscopic diagnosis and treatment.
