Health Checkup Examination Items

Health checkup examination items cover a wide range including physical measurements, blood tests, urine tests, and imaging examinations. Under the Industrial Safety and Health Act, statutory health checkups specify 11 basic items based on age, while comprehensive medical checkups (Ningen Dock) include more detailed examinations. These examination items are essential for early detection and prevention of lifestyle-related diseases and understanding health conditions.
