Visitors to Arab health Dubai 2022 will clearly see that,
Besides the big names in the field of medical imaging such as SIEMENS, GE, CANON(TOSHIBA ), FUJIFILM (HITACHI) and PHILIPS strongly showing the huge presence of Chinese companies you can see names such as UNITED IMAGING, NEUSOFT, ANKE, WDM, SHINVA, and  MINDRAY.
It is not a coincidence but the result of a great industrial revolution that began decades ago

Specialists in the imaging field are undoubtedly aware that many components of famous brands are made in China, but rather that you find that a Siemens brand device is completely made in China, and this is a strong indication that these industries are not new to China.

Someone says….the industrial quality of Chinese companies is limited and rises to be bad, this is not fair to say.
The other says that the low prices compared to the famous brands in the field
is the most important reason, also it is not fair to say that

Logically, the spread of Chinese devices in China itself should be considered as a huge country in terms of population density and economic power. In other words, have the sales of big names disappeared in China?
absolutely not.
There are no clear reports from the companies themselves.
take the example of UNITED IMAGING, which occupies a large area of ​​coverage of the Chinese market PETMR 100%PETSCAN 75% MR 50%.

You will be surprised that Chinese companies seek to compete with famous brands in their home countries in the USA and Europe, so they began to obtain CE and FDA certificates and registered some products for UNITED IMAGING, Neusoft and Anke

Technological development was the advantage of a lot of Chinese related industries، Because of race and technology competition، There must be something new and unique
together by software and hardware
for example UNITED IMAGING bears the slogan (we start where the others end) that is not just a marketing propaganda, looking at UNITED IMAGING’s UCT780 adopts 70KV SCAN MODE technology, Z DETECTOR and MAC metal artifact correction . another example from neusoft Neuviz 128 with microstar detector technology as well as use simple and unique software applications to get the best diagnostic result.
Another example of UNITED IMAGING is the UMI 780 PETCT, its most important feature is ULTRA LARGE FOV 300MM and a full test time 5 minutes… It’s really amazing to save the patient time and money
The uses of artificial intelligence techniques, research and development are clearly in UNITED IMAGING

Through my work for seventeen years in the field of medical imaging, there is a great problem facing all companies, which is after-sales service and spare parts… and will not end.
How is the situation with Chinese companies? In fact, there are no reports or statistics,
UNITED IMAGING TUBES MADE BY VAREX
ANKE TUBES MADE BY DUNLEE
NEUSOFT TUBES MADE BY PHILIPS
It is true that tubes are a very expensive piece of any device, but there are other parts… In fact, it is a problem with new devices. You will definitely buy from the companies or distributors which will be so expensive .

Success is easy, but continuing to succeed is the challenge

I wrote this article and I am convinced that the future in this field will come from the East.
We will wait.
