1. Examination for lifestyle-related diseases
We have a lineup of popular tests (blood tests, special tests etc.) as requested by many people at THE PREVENTION CLINIC TOKYO in addition to the examination stipulated by the government and health insurance associations.
We would like to take this opportunity to invite you to apply.
MCI (mild cognitive impairment) screening [blood test]
As well as the basic examination program, other examinations are included such as fundoscopy, eyesight and hearing test, respiratory function test, fecal occult blood (2-day method), abdominal ultrasound, chest CT, abdominal & visceral fat CT, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, head MRI, pelvic MRI, bone density measurement, (women only) mammary gland ultrasound, mammography, 3 microRNA tests screening 3 major cancer risks and LOX-index test(cerebral infarction/myocardial infarction risk diagnosis) .
Ideal for busy people, we can provide specialized detailed examinations and risk assessments for major cancers, cerebral infarction, myocardial infarction, and lifestyle-related diseases in half a day.
Amino balance check [blood test]
Although protein is composed of only 20 kinds of amino acids, these amino acids are divided into the amino acids which can be synthesized in the body (non-essential amino acids) and must be taken from food because it cannot be synthesized in the body (essential amino acids).
Amino Balance Check is an examination method that evaluates the risk of developing dementia as well as lifestyle-related diseases such as stroke, myocardial infarction and diabetes based on the balance of these 20 amino acids contained in the blood. It can also be a key point to improve the diet for those who do not know whether the current diet is appropriate.
Intestinal flora test [Stool test]
The number of intestinal bacteria living in the intestinal tract is approximately 1,000 trillion and 1,000 types. These bacteria that live in the intestines exist in clumps of each species, and it is called “intestinal flora” because this state resembles a flower garden (flora) lined up by variety. Intestinal flora is known that its pattern varies not only according to the intestinal environment of each individual, but also changes due to lifestyle-related diseases and digestive disorders. Which means that the intestinal flora test enables to detect latent diseases only by examining the bacteria in the collected stool and it has become a very popular test method lately. Maintaining intestinal flora properly also leads to intake a well-balanced diet naturally which helps those who have trouble with constipation.
*We emphasize the importance of taking "in" and "out" of food at our clinic therefore, we recommend you to take both examinations of an amino balance check and an intestinal flora test.
Allergen check [blood test]
Allergy is a reaction of the immune system against foreign substances (allergens) that enter the body from the outside and adversely affect the body itself such as hay fever and food allergies. Although allergen categories are limited, major allergens (19 types of inhalation, 20 types of food) can be texted in the allergen check and we recommend if you have symptom of sneezing, runny nose etc. seasonally or all year round, or experience itchiness from foods in order to find out what kind of allergy you have. It also helps prevent a serious allergic reaction called anaphylactic shock.
