Joint 'Mobile Healthcare' Lab of China Mobile and Ministry of Education Launches Remote Medical Platform

VCBeat (WeChat: vcbeat) has learned that the China Mobile Global Partner Conference was grandly held in Guangzhou on December 7. At the conference, the Ministry of Education–China Mobile Joint Laboratory on “Mobile Healthcare,” jointly established by China Mobile and Central South University, released its telemedicine platform.

The platform aims to leverage the professional expertise of the Xiangya Medical System and the information technology advantages of China Mobile, accelerate the decentralization of high-quality medical resources to grassroots levels, and support the national development of “Internet + Healthcare.”

The telemedicine platform developed by the Joint Laboratory is built on China Mobile’s Medical Cloud, providing remote pathology and medical imaging services. It is compatible with mainstream domestic pathology slide scanners, medical imaging equipment, and mobile viewing terminals, enabling remote expert diagnosis and online education. This initiative helps improve the diagnostic capabilities and quality of care at primary healthcare institutions. The platform has already delivered remote diagnostic and educational services to hundreds of hospitals across multiple provinces and cities in China, and its business operations are currently undergoing further promotion and expansion.

The establishment of this platform has normalized remote pathological diagnosis in clinical practice, thereby implementing the national policies on tiered diagnosis and treatment and "Internet + Healthcare."

The “Mobile Healthcare” Joint Laboratory of the Ministry of Education and China Mobile was established in 2012, dedicated to innovative research in the field of mobile healthcare. After six years of development, the laboratory has gradually formed stable research directions in mobile healthcare, the Internet of Things (IoT), big data, and artificial intelligence. It has undertaken multiple projects under the National Key R&D Program and the National Natural Science Foundation of China, producing a series of scientific and technological achievements, some of which have been applied in practice.

VCBeat has learned that, in the future, the laboratory will continue to integrate high-quality resources in the healthcare sector and foster ongoing innovation to support the “Healthy China 2030” initiative.
