Recently, the Arab International Medical Equipment Exhibition (Arab Health) was held in the United Arab Emirates-Dubai World Trade Center. As the largest international professional medical equipment exhibition in the Middle East, it brings together hospital managers and medical equipment suppliers from all over the world. As an important part of Midea Medical, Wandong Medical also brought many innovative products to the exhibition, which attracted the attention of the industry and the market.
Among them, Wandong Kaitian i_Vision1.5T liquid helium-free superconducting magnetic resonance attracted the attention of the audience. According to reports, superconducting magnetic resonance is inseparable from liquid helium, a non-renewable resource. In recent years, the price of helium in the global market has fluctuated greatly. In October last year, media reported that the cost of helium had risen by 30%, and four of the five helium suppliers in the United States had begun to ration helium, which would affect the use of MRI in hospitals. The Wandong Kaitian i_Vision1.5T liquid helium-free superconducting magnetic resonance exhibited by Wandong Medical can fundamentally solve the problem of liquid helium dependence and reduce the direct loss caused by quenching.
According to the relevant person in charge of Wandong Medical, the product is equipped with the subversive innovation and research FREE-cool ultra-low temperature conduction platform, integrates cutting-edge technologies such as high-efficiency low-temperature medium, ultra-high vacuum, and extreme thermal insulation technology, and achieves a stable and uniform extreme low-temperature environment without a drop of liquid helium, completing the revolution of liquid helium "from there to nothing", and opening a new era of 100% liquid helium-free superconducting magnetic resonance.
It is reported that the product has been put into use in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital and sold in helium-poor countries such as Africa and South America, which may open a new journey for China's imaging to empower global health.
