2023 Future Medical Imaging Innovation Forum: Unlocking the Path to Domestic Breakthroughs and High-Quality Development
Medical imaging is one of the fastest-growing disciplines in 21st-century medicine. For a long time, the high-end medical imaging market has been dominated by foreign brands. There is an urgent need to bolster “Chinese confidence,” overcome critical technological bottlenecks, and break free from the shackles of foreign monopolies. Against the backdrop of continuous national policy support and the high-quality development of domestic healthcare solutions, Chinese medical imaging enterprises have courageously broken through barriers and pursued relentless innovation. They are consistently driving the high-quality localization of China’s medical imaging industry with greater speed, stronger momentum, fresher perspectives, and higher dimensions.
October 18,2023 Future Medical Imaging Innovation Forum, co-hosted by VCBeat and the Endoscopy Industry Alliance, with support from Deepwise TechnologyTo be held in Nanjing. The forum will focus on innovation and collaboration in domestically produced medical imaging, joining forces with pioneering entities and innovative momentum to share case studies and engage in innovative dialogues from four perspectives: scientific research, technology, application, and collaboration, thereby showcasing the innovative strength of China’s medical imaging industry. Meanwhile, the forum will build an open and collaborative industrial ecosystem, facilitate cross-sector integration of innovations, and promote high-quality innovative development of China’s medical imaging sector.
