Some experts at the meeting believed that it is imperative to improve the conversion rate of medical scientific and technological achievements and there is a long way to go. Artificial intelligence technology is leading the revolutionary transformation of the healthcare industry, and its application prospects in the fields of medical image analysis, personalized treatment planning, early warning of diseases, and drug innovation are promising. In addition, the AI model has also played an important role in improving the intelligence of patient services, including guidance, triage, health education and monitoring, etc., which has greatly improved the medical experience of patients and met the public's demand for high-quality, diversified and personalized medical services.
According to Zhang Zhong, deputy director of the Shanghai Municipal Health Commission, in the current era of high integration of informatization, networking and intelligence, digital technology is profoundly changing the face of the medical and health field. As an important city in the development of medical and health services in mainland China, Shanghai has always attached great importance to innovation and development in the field of digital healthcare. He believes that the integration of industry and education is a key link in promoting digital medical technology innovation. By strengthening the in-depth integration of industry, academia, research and application, we can accelerate the research and development, transformation and application of digital medical technology, and provide strong support for improving the level of medical services. The Shanghai Municipal Health Commission will continue to increase its support for the digital medical industry, optimize the innovation ecological environment, strengthen cooperation with universities, scientific research institutions and enterprises, and jointly promote the integration of digital medical industry and education to achieve more fruitful results.
Huang Hefeng, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and dean of the School of Medicine of Zhejiang University, focused on "the integration of industry and education in digital medicine, empowering clinical applications", emphasizing its role in promoting medical clinical applications. She pointed out that digital medicine is revolutionizing clinical diagnosis and treatment through big data, artificial intelligence and other technologies.
Wu Tao, president of Shanghai Health Medical College, said that it is of great significance to build a health chain, promote the construction of an active health service system and the transformation and demonstration application of scientific and technological achievements in response to aging science and technology, and build a full-chain, all-round and intelligent health service system to improve the health level of the whole people and achieve the goal of a healthy China. Taking the exploration and practice of Shanghai Health Medical College in the field of active health services as an example, Wu Tao introduced the university's commitment to cultivating medical talents with innovative ability and practical skills, and promoting the innovation and application of health technology through close cooperation with medical institutions and research institutes.
Yu Guangjun, Vice Dean of the School of Medicine of Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen, gave a keynote speech on the theme of "Application and Exploration of Generative AI in Medical Services", in which he mentioned that generative AI can realize in-depth mining and analysis of medical data and provide doctors with more accurate diagnosis and treatment options. At the same time, generative AI can also be used to identify and analyze medical images, improving the accuracy and efficiency of medical images. In the future, generative AI in healthcare will use big data and machine learning to optimize disease prediction models, as well as enhance the patient experience through virtual reality and augmented reality.
The National Health Industry Enterprise Management Association will build a cooperation platform for the transformation of scientific and technological achievements for universities, enterprises, hospitals, scientific research institutions and local governments across the country, accelerate the transformation and application of scientific and technological achievements, and enable digital telemedicine technology to cover every corner of the country. On this platform, the top three hospitals in many provinces and cities across the country actively participated, and the university signed the national key research and development plan - the application demonstration base agreement of the blockchain geriatric active health intelligent care platform, the "Belt and Road" digital pathology management center and the 5G+ smart medical application demonstration base agreement with Qinhuangdao Maternal and Child Health Hospital, Dali First People's Hospital, Wenzhou Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, Tai'an Central Hospital, Affiliated Hospital of Guilin Medical College, Nanning First People's Hospital, Jinan Hospital and a number of third-class hospitals. The agreement will carry out in-depth cooperation in the fields of pathological diagnosis, health management, medical research and talent training, and improve the accuracy and efficiency of pathological diagnosis and enhance the comprehensive service capacity of grassroots medical institutions through the establishment of a demonstration base for the application of digital pathology management center.
The representative of the tertiary hospital who participated in the signing of the agreement said: "We look forward to participating in national key R&D projects, introducing advanced digital pathology management technology, improving diagnosis and treatment and scientific research capabilities, and providing patients with better medical services." ”
