China News Service, July 10 (Reporter Chen Jing) AI empowering medical digital transformation is a hot topic at the 3rd World Artificial Intelligence Conference that is being held here.

For hospitals and enterprises, in the new era of medical intelligence integration, a fully intelligent medical health ecology that runs through prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation is emerging.

　　Fan Jia, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and dean of Zhongshan Hospital affiliated to Fudan University, said in an interview on the 10th that artificial intelligence has empowered medical and health care, changed medical methods and models, and brought tremendous changes to the health industry.

The hospital is promoting the standardization of clinical diagnosis and treatment and operation management through digital construction, improving the ability of pathological analysis and serving patients.

　　In terms of medical depth, artificial intelligence will continue to play a key role, covering all fields such as treatment methods, diagnostic equipment, and basic services.

"With the help of artificial intelligence, a new patient-centered future medical model will eventually be formed." Fan Jia said bluntly.

　　During the interview, the reporter learned that the Yangtze River Delta (Shanghai) Smart Internet Hospital is the first smart Internet hospital in the Yangtze River Delta Demonstration Zone, and it is an important exploration of the digital transformation of Shanghai's medical services.

Zhongshan Hospital is one of the co-constructors.

Fan Jia pointed out: “Relying on the AI ​​hub, all-round empowerment of regional medical care, so that patients can enjoy unified services, the Yangtze River Delta (Shanghai) Smart Internet Hospital will be built into a smart hub for Shanghai's high-quality medical resources to radiate the Yangtze River Delta.

Xue Min said that the "China Core" dedicated to molecular imaging has been successfully developed, and the entire line of medical imaging AI dedicated chips is under development.

　　In recent years, AI has played a significant role in the supply and demand sides of health scenarios, and digital, networked, and intelligent facilities and solutions are accelerating integration with medical scenarios.

In this regard, Xue Min, chairman of United Imaging Group, a high-tech enterprise in China’s high-end medical imaging equipment and related technology research and development and production, said in an interview with reporters on the 10th that in the future, one of the development directions of intelligent medical care is to "make equipment independent Thinking, self-evolving, simplifying the operation process to the greatest extent, and finally allowing patients to feel emotional care."

　　During the interview, the reporter learned that United Imaging and the Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University have strategically cooperated to create an integrated imaging platform in the Yangtze River Delta region, explore the integration of large-scale imaging equipment management into the cloud platform, and realize imaging applications and shared services in the medical union. Try the medical consortium's scientific research on difficult and complicated diseases and the multi-site collaborative scientific research assistance model.

According to statistics, so far, more than 200,000 cases of imaging AI-assisted diagnosis have been completed on this platform.

　　It is reported that in the prevention and control of the epidemic in the past year, the Smart Eye CT equipped with AI full-smart navigation system, which won the first prize of the Shanghai Science and Technology Award, has been widely used.

United Imaging and Shanghai Public Health Center jointly created a technological public health solution.

It integrates intelligent diagnosis and treatment, mobile inspection, regional prevention and control, scientific research and innovation, covering intelligent screening and hierarchical prevention and control, "combination of peace and war" emergency prevention and control, prevention and control of major diseases and infectious diseases to help new emergencies of major infectious diseases The emergency innovation, medical transformation, and industrial transformation of the country help to build a strong public health system.

　　In Xue Min's view, medical AI will not only be limited to the field of diagnosis and treatment, but will go to a broader C-end, to the general public, and penetrate into the entire field of health.

It is reported that the Long March series of in-vehicle medical imaging centers equipped with "equipment + AI + 5G + cloud platform" can help grassroots strengthen emergency prevention and control capabilities during wartime, and can help early screening of critical illnesses and routine imaging diagnosis, and carry out two cancer screenings, women and children Medical examinations, cerebrovascular diseases and other imaging examinations, supplement the shortcomings of township/community hospitals.

It is United Imaging's focus to provide subjects with multi-site, multi-disease, multi-dimensional full-scale health analysis and intelligent health assessment.

　　AI also has room to show its talents when it comes to solving the problem of "immediately" in major medical research.

Xue Min introduced that the use of intelligent universal modules can help shorten the scientific research cycle and accelerate the transformation of medicine and the implementation of technology.

According to reports, at present, United Imaging has carried out scientific research cooperation in various fields such as drawing the Chinese human brain atlas, research on the safety and mechanism of action of comprehensive tumor treatment and evaluation of curative effects, exploring the mysteries of traditional Chinese medicine, and verifying theories of traditional Chinese medicine.
