Recently, a MinFound mobile CT system is serving many people in China with low-dose CT screening scans for lung cancer, in a project organized by AstraZeneca and local government. The low-dose CT scan (LDCT) is considered the only recommended screening test for lung cancer and has been proven a lifesaver for higher risk people of lung cancer. MinFound mobile CT system nestling a 16-slice CT scanner inside, featuring lower x-ray radiation while preserving images` quality, is a great option to deliver lung cancer screening test for people especially those who are inaccessible to quality scans.

On 24th July, a MinFound mobile medical CT system (a semi-trailer unit) was successfully delivered in Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University, a hospital that is located in central Wuhan city, founded in 1956 and with up to 3300 licensed beds. [This mobile medical CT system is planned as effective tools to help us cope with COVID-19 and provide people in need with prompt and quality mobile imaging service as well, e.g., check-up service for people in remote area and first-aid imaging service in emergencies. [ said Dr. Yuan, the vice-president of Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University. This mobile CT system nestles a brand-new MinFound ScintCare blue 755 CT inside, a 32-slice versatile CT that features lower x-ray dose while maintaining images` quality and automated workflow for an efficient and user-friendly scan.

It has been 6 months since MinFound ScintCare CT128 was put to use in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, dubbed as the largest hospital in Asia with up to 8000 licensed beds and 5 million outpatient and emergency visits annually. How is this MinFound 128-slice CT serving the hospital and does it outperform other 128-slice CT scanners in this hospital? The clinical feedback from the chief radiologist Dr Liu Jie may answer these questions. [15000 scans in total including contrast-enhanced CT scan have been performed since the installation, especially in March when the epidemic was raging in China severely, we finished up to 380 scans with this CT daily. From the perspective of clinical performance, it has substantially met the set requirements and is considered rather competitive compared to well-known brands."

Due to the high false-negative rate of molecular test and the difficulty in distinguishing COVID-19 from other pneumonia by the CT images alone, leveraging the artificial intelligence technology maybe the solution so as to diagnose COVID-19 accurately and efficiently based on a large amount of clinical data and professional perceptions on CT and epidemiology. Yesterday, a multilateral online meeting was organized with the participations of MinFound, as the CT solution provider, Tencent healthcare, as the algorithm co-designer, Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University which managed the biggest makeshift hospital in Wuhan in Feb and Russian`s chief epidemiologist who is expected to bring info from infected Russian cases, aiming to share the perceptions on this project from each perspective and discuss how to efficiently kick off this project.

Recently, a MinFound 16-slice CT was successfully installed in Agusan del Norte Provincial Hospital, the Philippines and starts to serve local people as the first newly installed CT in this provincial hospital. Upon the completion of the installation, we received quite firm and positive feedback from local radiologists: [It impressed us immediately in the trial scans with smooth workflow, outstanding images and good feedback from trial-takers".

One more 124-slice MinFound CT was delivered. This time it goes to Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, a tertiary, research-oriented general hospital with 1200 beds and 29 clinical specialties. MinFound 778 Honor is equipped with 4cm-wide detector and 8M flying focal spot tube and 80 kw high voltage generator, powering comprehensive clinical applications including cardiac scans.
