MGI SPARK and Roche Forge Strategic Alliance at CIIE to Advance 'Three Early' Cancer Care Ecosystem with 5G Remote Ultrasound Robotics

On November 6, 2021, at the 4th China International Import Expo, MGI Cloud Imaging, Roche, Hanwei Intelligent Healthcare, and Shanzhen officially reached an agreement on cancer "early detection, earlyDiagnosis, and early treatment” "Three Earlys" ecosystem strategic alliance. Multiple parties join hands to build an integrated online and offline system, jointly advancing cancer prevention and control, increasingTumorDiagnostic and treatment resources, improve the accessibility and balanced distribution of medical resources, and facilitate the realization of "Healthy China 2030".

Join Hands to Build Cancer "Early Detection", "EarlyDiagnosis”, “Early Treatment” Ecosystem

In this collaboration, the remote ultrasound robot developed by MGI isTumorRemote screening provides a core solution, offering high-quality tools for "early screening, early diagnosis, and early treatment," reducing social costs at the source, and advancing remote ultrasound-enabled smart healthcare to support cancer "earlyDiagnosis”, thereby reducing cancer mortality rates, and is committed to delivering dual improvements in survival and quality of life for Chinese patients.

Currently, China has become the country with the highest number of new cancer cases and cancer-related deaths worldwide. To further strengthen cancer prevention and control efforts, 《Guiding Opinions of the State Council on Implementing the Healthy China Action》 explicitly establishes a key target: by 2030, China's overall 5-year cancer survival rate shall reach no less than 46.6%.

China’s vast territory has resulted in uneven regional healthcare development, with medical resources being particularly strained in remote areas. To promote the extension of high-quality medical resources to grassroots levels and advance primary-care cancer screening and early diagnosis, MGI Cloud Imaging, in partnership with Roche and Hanwei Intelligent Medical, has jointly developed a patient early-diagnosis solution. By introducing 5G + AIoT intelligent tele-ultrasound healthcare technology, this initiative addresses geographical constraints and timeliness challenges, helping primary-care patients gain earlier access to precise and effectiveDiagnosis。

“Through strategic cooperation with Roche, we will jointly establish a remote real-time diagnostic linkage mechanism between higher-tier hospitals and primary healthcare institutions in remote areas, thereby enhancing the service capacity and management standards of grassroots healthcare.” Wu Li, General Manager of MGI Yunying, stated: “The MGI Yunying remote ultrasound robot can overcome geographical barriers via 5G technology, providing patients with real-time diseaseDiagnosisservice. To this end, MGI Yunying has established a collaboration network covering China with dozens of China's top hospitals and experts. also based onMobile HealthcareThe vehicle is equipped as a 5G mobile ultrasound diagnostic and treatment room, bringing expert resources to primary care settings and communities to enable localized cancer screening and advance early detection efforts.# Diagnosischeckpoint."

Roche PharmaceuticalsBian Xin, President of Roche China, stated: “For many years, Roche has consistently upheld the philosophy of ‘Patients First,’ focusing on the health needs of the Chinese people and actively supporting the Healthy China initiative. As an anti-”TumorAs a leader in the field, we collaborate with ecosystem partners to explore innovative models, co-build a closed loop of screening, diagnosis, and treatment, and jointly advance cancer 'early detection, earlyDiagnosis、early treatment' implementation, helping to realize the grand vision of Healthy China 2030.”

In April 2021, MGI officially delivered its first mobile ultrasound robot cart. When deployed in regions lacking specialized diagnostic equipment and examination personnel, the mobile cart can enhance ultrasoundDiagnosisaccessibility, to establish mobile ultrasound diagnostic and treatment clinics. Prior to this, MGI Yunying partnered with Roche, the China Women and Children's Foundation, and Shanghai Tenth People's Hospital to deploy the mobile unit to Anji County, Zhejiang Province, conducting services for female employees of local enterprisesBreast CancerDuring the free clinic, two cases of suspicious nodules were detected. This June, the mobile clinic vehicle also traveled to Tongren, Guizhou, to conduct free thyroid screenings for local residents. Thanks to its mobility and convenience, ultrasound examinations are no longer confined to hospitals and other medical institutions. This has improved the utilization of medical resources, truly advancing the equalization of healthcare services and enabling technological innovations to benefit the general public. (Bioon)
