Hebin Intelligence: China's Independently Developed Remote Ultrasound Robot – Featured in Artery Select New Product Showcase Episode 47

Data indicates that, as the most widely used modality in medical imaging diagnosis, ultrasound has expanded its applications from early abdominal and obstetric-gynecologic diagnostics to multiple clinical fields, including cardiovascular, neurological, and musculoskeletal diagnostics, and is increasingly extending into non-diagnostic areas such as ultrasound-guided interventional procedures.

However, overall, ultrasound medicine in China still faces issues such as uneven regional development and imperfect institutional frameworks. Relevant data indicate that while there are currently over 200,000 ultrasound physicians in China, the annual number of ultrasound examinations reaches approximately 2 billion. Although market demand for ultrasound examinations is substantial, there is a scarcity of ultrasound physicians, and training a qualified practitioner typically requires three to five years. Furthermore, ultrasound examinations rely primarily on manual operation, depending heavily on physicians’ experience and demanding high levels of technical expertise.

The advent of artificial intelligence technology has brought breakthroughs to ultrasound imaging applications.Hebin IntelligenceAs aFocus on Smart Healthcare as the Key R&D Directiona national-level high-tech enterprise dedicated to the research and development of cutting-edge technologies such as remote operation, intelligent robotics, ultrasound-assisted diagnosis, and artificial intelligence, with the aim of creating a “"AI + Robotics + Ultrasound"a full-chain smart ultrasound service platform centered on this core. Its remote ultrasound robots enable physicians to remotely operate the patient-side robotic arm for ultrasound scanning via a contour-following probe at the physician’s console over 5G or broadband internet connections, and to adjust ultrasound parameters on the patient side in real time to facilitate remote diagnosis.

Remote Ultrasound Robot,It can achieve the universalization and standardization of ultrasound medical resources, completing the county-level medical consortium., providing patients with convenient, efficient, and high-quality ultrasound diagnostic medical resources.“CountyThe construction of “Medical Community” is an important task of the National Health Commission.Specifically, centering on the goals of “strengthening county-level services, invigorating township-level services, stabilizing village-level services, integrating upper and lower tiers, and ensuring seamless information flow,” we will advance urban-to-rural and township-to-village support, as well as integrated county-township and township-village development, by systematically reshaping the healthcare system and integrating and optimizing healthcare resources.County-Level Medical Communitydevelopment. Among them, the community represents a region with uniform standards of medical care, allowing patients to followLocal Diagnosis and TreatmentIn principle, there is no need to rush around due to technological limitations and the uneven distribution of medical resources.

On Tuesday, March 19, at 19:30, the 47th edition of Artery Selection’s New Product Showcase will feature Huang Qi, Co-founder of Hebin Intelligence, and Yu Shuai, Head of Marketing at Hebin Intelligence, who will present their independently developed domestic remote ultrasound robot (ultrasound probe holding and remote control system).
