Chapter 2: AI Visualizing Depression? Future Technologies Unlocked by Abundant DataChapter 3: From Competition to Collaboration: A New Relationship Between Japan and Taiwan in Healthcarethe potential to contribute to early disease detection and has received international recognition. New technologies are also being introduced in emergency medicine, where every second counts. An AI diagnostic support system developed by Deep01 automatically detects cerebral hemorrhages from head CT scans with a high accuracy of 95%. As a technology that significantly shortens the time until a doctor can review images and contributes to improving survival rates, it has received clearance not only in Taiwan but also from the U.S. FDA and is being deployed globally. Taiwan's technology in the surgical support robot field is also noteworthy. The "NaoTrac," a neurosurgical navigation robot developed by Brain Navi, achieves high sub-millimeter accuracy with a non-contact, automatic registration system utilizing AI. It is a good example of a startup making its mark with unique technology in a market dominated by established global companies. These innovations can be said to illustrate a part of Taiwan's vibrant ecosystem, where startups, leveraging a rich data foundation, tackle societal challenges with agile development capabilities, based on a deep understanding of clinical needs.is being formed. Several symbolic cases have been reported. Rohto Pharmaceutical is collaborating with a major Taiwanese biotech company to jointly develop regenerative medicine products for both markets. Exosome technology c o m p a n y T E C E x o s o m e h a s e s t a b l i s h e d " J a p a n Exosome Inc." jointly with Toyota Holdings to target the global market. The Kyoto University iPS Cell Research Foundation is also showing moves to advance the iPS cell manufacturing process by applying Taiwanese semiconductor technology. These collaborations, which seek to accelerate innovation by leveraging Japan's "seeds" (basic research) and Taiwan's "development and manufacturing capabilities," are noteworthy not only as an aspect of international competition but also as a movement to explore new possibilities through cooperation. A unified digital infrastructure also functions as a In the field of mental healthcare, Brain-Navi developed For osteoporosis, a challenge in aging societies, Taiwan's advanced initiatives are not just a threat to While Japan has a world-leading research record in Here, the potential for Japan-Taiwan collaboration can catalyst for Taiwan's development in the health-tech sector. The high-quality big data of the entire population accumulated through the NHI can be a valuable resource for AI development. In 2020, the Taiwanese government positioned the "precision health" industry as one of its "Six Core Strategic Industries," viewing medical data as a national strategic asset and promoting its fusion with the country's strengths in the ICT industry to foster new innovation. The results are beginning to emerge as "problem-solving innovations."the "Deprouser," an AI medical device that analyzes electroencephalogram (EEG) data to visualize depression risk as an objective numerical value. This is gaining attention for bringing a new layer of objective data to a diagnostic process that has traditionally relied heavily on subjective interviews with physicians.companies like AIM have developed a system that uses AI to determine risk in seconds from existing chest X-ray images. As a form of "opportunistic screening" that requires no additional testing or radiation exposure, it has Japan. A movement of "collaboration" that combines the strengths of both sides is becoming active, especially in the field of regenerative medicine.basic research such as iPS cell studies, overcoming the so-called "valley of death" to commercialize these results is a recognized challenge. The number of approved regenerative medicine products is small compared to the U.S. and South Korea, and the path to industrialization is not smooth. The importance of the role of CDMOs (Contract Development and Manufacturing Organizations) in filling this gap has been pointed out.be seen. By combining Taiwan's high-quality and efficient CDMO capabilities with Japan's basic research strength and large market, a mutually complementary partnership 10
