About Us
Since succeeding in Japan's first manned balloon flight, Shimadzu has, with an inexhaustible spirit of inquiry, continued to open up new frontiers in science and technology. In 1877, Genzo Shimadzu Sr. became the first person in Japan to succeed in making a manned balloon. Inherited by subsequent generations, his frontier spirit has since spread all over the world, and has given birth to a broad range of pioneering, cutting-edge instruments.
Spirit for research in science and technology developed to medical imaging
In 1896, only a few months after Dr. Conrad Roentgen‘s discovery of X-rays, Genzo Shimadzu Jr. and Professor Muraoka of Kyoto University succeeded in taking the first X-ray images in Japan. With this pioneering discovery, another foundation was laid for a variety of future developments for imaging systems in medicine:
A driving force in medical imaging technology, Shimadzu introduced many industry firsts which meanwhile have become standard in today’s clinical applications.
