On July 29, Shanghai Aitrox Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “FUSUN AITROX”) completed a strategic financing round exceeding RMB 100 million, jointly led by Fosun Pharma and Sinopharm China International Capital, with Anting Industrial participating as a follow-on investor. Existing shareholder Fosun Pharma increased its investment in this round, demonstrating strong confidence in FUSUN AITROX, while also introducing industrial capital partners to jointly support the company’s rapid growth.

 

Exploring AI Empowerment to Drive the Upgrade of the Artificial Intelligence Medical Imaging Industry

 

According to industry research reports, the market size of China's medical artificial intelligence (AI) sector is maintaining rapid growth and is projected to exceed RMB 100 billion by 2030. As the demand for precision medicine continues to expand, placing higher requirements on physicians' work efficiency, the demand for medical AI products will broaden and accelerate, thereby driving the development of both the medical AI industry and its enterprises.

 

Taking FUSUN AITROX’s self-developed digital microscopic image analysis system, Aitrox Lens AI, as an example, it comprises an automated microscope scanner and an artificial intelligence analysis module, establishing a one-stop pathological service workflow encompassing “slide scanning, assisted analysis, and structured reporting.” The digital microscopic scanning system of Aitrox Lens AI enables unattended operation, with a single device capable of scanning over 1,000 slides per day. This significantly enhances physicians’ work efficiency (increasing it by 2–3 times compared to traditional manual slide review), helps reduce the probability of misdiagnosis and missed diagnoses, improves diagnostic accuracy, and addresses the shortage of pathologists.

Mr. Wu Yifang, Chairman of Fosun Pharmastated: “As Fosun Pharma’s first self-incubated AI-assisted medical diagnostic platform, FUSUN AITROX possesses distinct advantages in technological capabilities, business model, and ecosystem integration. This continued investment in FUSUN AITROX underscores Fosun Pharma’s sustained optimism regarding the future development trends of the medical AI industry. Leveraging its technology-driven leadership and integrating healthcare industry resources, Fosun Pharma will collaborate with partners to support and facilitate the rapid growth of FUSUN AITROX.”

 

Regarding future developments,Mr. Li Ke, General Manager of Sinopharm CICC, the investor in this roundIt stated: “Since its inception, FUSUN AITROX has been positioned as Fosun Group’s strategic initiative in the AI healthcare sector and its sole AI medical imaging platform. Backed by hundreds of millions in funding over several years and supported by medical institutions nationwide under the Fosun Group, it boasts a strong foundation for growth. Sinopharm China International Capital’s shareholder, Sinopharm Group Co., Ltd., is a leading enterprise in China’s pharmaceutical distribution industry, with profound industry expertise and strategic layout. Leveraging shareholder resources, Sinopharm China International Capital will continue to provide capital support and resource integration to foster the development of FUSUN AITROX. Imaging and pathology data form the cornerstone of disease diagnosis, treatment, and health management. In China, where there is a shortage of radiologists and pathologists alongside uneven distribution of medical resources, the application of AI in auxiliary diagnosis for imaging and pathology to enhance efficiency and empower primary-care hospitals is imperative. FUSUN AITROX’s products have been practically validated and well-received across multiple departments and disease types, pioneering the flexible implementation of the SaaS model. We believe that through continuous product innovation and mature commercialization experience, FUSUN AITROX will achieve greater success in serving physicians, patients, and facilitating regional coordination of medical resources.”
