The important relics of a country gather together the spirits of myriad objects. The grandiose “1000 Meter Jiangnan Painting” does this. The unvarnished, thousand year old treasure sword of the King of Yue does this. They represent the past glory of Chinese civilization. If you want to ask where  China’s new generation of “national treasures” will appear, then the answer very possibly may be in the field of medical equipment.

The Chinese ultrasound market has been monopolized by international equipment for a long time. However, in recent years Chinese equipment has essentially achieved international standards, and is currently advancing in the field of portable color Doppler ultrasound.

Recently, at the “China Color Doppler Ultrasound ‘new forms, new applications, new instruction” information exchange display and medal ceremony” held by the ultrasound equipment technology branch of the China Medical Equipment Association a group of outstanding Chinese color Doppler ultrasound brands made a stunning debut. 

Outstanding Chinese brands like VINNO won the “Good Ultrasound of 2017” award.

So, what is the current strength of Chinese equipment? One competition reveals that: not long ago a Grade A Class 3 hospital’s Thoracic Surgery Department needed to acquire an ultrasound device to conduct more precise breast surgeries. The reminder that the Ultrasound Department director on duty gave them was: good image quality is crucial! For this reason, they got the Chinese brand VINNO to compete with international brands live. 

The needle points on VINNO equipment are clearly visible, and easily reach target positions. 

The needle point image that VINNO displayed was more clear under the same conditions. Doctors repeatedly completed drills with great gusto. The international equipment stood to one side gathering dust. 

What lies behind outstanding image quality is overall technological support. VINNO’s Director of Operations, Chen Huiren, stated that: “VINNO is the lightest portable color Doppler ultrasound in the industry that is the easiest to operate. Our independently researched and developed RF metadata platform restores ultrasound information to the greatest possible extent, and has excellent image presentation. This along with the 23 MHz high frequency probe and highly original “V-Guide” functions have received the unanimous praise of specialists. You could say our portable color Doppler ultrasound series is already at an advanced world level.”

This victory is an epitome of the huge changes in the Chinese ultrasound market, and also represents a sharp rise in the strength of Chinese ultrasound. An expert full of confidence in the development of Chinese brands said: “Miniaturized, specialized, and smart portable color Doppler ultrasound, and even hand held ultrasound will bring ever more possibilities to clinics.” 

VINNO’s portable hand held ultrasound has appeared on CCTV, and is sought after by investors.

This is by no means an atypical voice within the industry. Professor Yuxing said: Hand held ultrasound will subvert traditional diagnostic and treatment  methods. I predict that in the future China will retain its leading position in the production, use, and export of hand held ultrasound worldwide. 

Chinese ultrasound equipment has much to offer here. VINNO became an undertaking company of the national key “hand held ultrasound”project in 2016. Chen Huiren stated that: “What we focus on is not the traditional field of ultrasound, but plan to integrate ultrasound with smart image scanning and remote diagnoses, anticipate sophisticated ultrasound technology benefiting diversified settings including home use, military affairs, and emergency treatment, and help doctors to better realize precise diagnoses and treatment.”

VINNO’s remote diagnoses system provides a cloud technology platform for hand held ultrasound

In the near future no matter where you are you will be able to enjoy professional and accurate ultrasound diagnostic services at any time. Hand held ultrasound is only the first step. 2018 will be the first year in which smart medical solutions develop at a rapid speed. Our generation of Chinese people will continue to explore, and forge a new generation of Chinese ultrasound “national treasures” with a professional, supreme, and innovative national product spirit. 

In this moment at the start of a new year we pay homage to Chinese ultrasound peers: inherit the spirit of national products, demonstrate the made with wisdom concept and innovation! Let’s continue to write the glory of a great power that carries on the past and opens a way for the future together!
