Remote medical imaging diagnosis and treatment industry booming three big reasons
Remote medical images based on the technology of the Internet industry in recent years gradually grow into a force to be reckoned with in the remote has thus become the inevitable trend of medical imaging diagnosis and treatment.
The main reason is:
1) traditional medicine imaging department patients unable to meet the growing domestic demand, especially in grass-roots hospitals lack professional ability enough image division shooting mechanic and read piece of diagnosis of doctors;
2) industry of remote medical imaging diagnosis and treatment, medical back on the Internet, because of its industry characteristics, is the "Internet +" in the medical section of the vanguard of the Internet. In recent years, with health care reform, speed up deepening, all kinds of good policies in succession, strengthening medical insurance implementation, it is time to try the Internet into the health care industry.
3) the development of mobile Internet, smart terminal hardware popularization and improvement of the Internet infrastructure for remote medical imaging industry medical side and patients the docking provides the explosive growth of the soil.
40% of the us market contribution from the independent image center The Chinese market faces a major opportunity
The medical imaging market forecast (data source: sinolink securities research institute)
Based on this, medical imaging industry has undoubtedly into the fast lane, medical imaging center at the same time also is becoming a focus. In America, for example, has the image center in more than 6800, 2015, about 11 million person-times of remote medical service. It mainly B2B service is given priority to, including about 5 million times between hospital image diagnosis (including X-ray, CT, MRI). From 2009 to 2009, the United States medical imaging diagnosis of $4.66 billion from $4.66 billion to expand into the market. 60% of the market contribution from medical institutions; 40% of the market contribution from the independent image center.
In China, the core value of medical imaging is made up for basic-level hospitals image of professional talents, hospital save the human cost, also the largest extent, to avoid the medical disputes caused by misdiagnosis. For patients, don't have to travel long distances to see a doctor, would prefer to stay at the grass-roots level. Along with the advancement of hierarchical diagnosis, limited large public hospital in new equipment, as well as independent video center policy limit, has given rise to the opportunity of independent medical imaging center. Images according to the report of sinolink securities, the current domestic market scale in more than $2000, the scale of medical imaging center in the provincial capital city in 250-30 billion, the scale of medical imaging center at county level in more than $300.
Offline medical imaging center traffic entrance
Comb through to the case of medical imaging center at home and abroad, with the deep development of medical imaging center, cannot leave the line flow entrance in the center of the image, the diagnosis of the doctor group support, and the application of new technologies to promote the efficiency of diagnosis.
Flow of medical imaging center is offline entry, based on the center of the image read cloud platform relatively pure asset light cloud platform have more advantages. Independent medical imaging center carries on clinical diagnosis and high-end medical business, based on the stable source of customers, can form stable, high quality team of experts.
Pure light assets of remote reading platform for high value, provide standardized service, let the hospital or patient is willing to pay for pure services such as the difficulty. Asset light of remote reading difficulty is not the technology platform, which is how to get stable and high value-added content.
Build flow entrance in the center of the construction of offline medical imaging, plains, medical service companies in the United States (Alliance Healthcare Services) mode is worthy of reference for the Chinese market very much to learn. As America's biggest mobile video diagnostic stagnation point image providers, service providers, hospital stereotactic radiosurgery providers, service hospitals and medical institutions all over the United States, has the strong ability of offline.
As of December 31, 2015, alain, service and management of the 563 sets of imaging diagnosis and radiotherapy equipment, 116 units in the states of the stationary point radiation center hospital; At the same time, the company also through 32 radiotherapy center is responsible for the relevant operation of treatment facilities. Company and in 45 states across the country, more than 1000 hospitals, health administrative departments, medical institutions and physicians association established long-term strategic cooperative relations, and through the company's 2430 professional staff provide nursing care for patients.
Diagnostic support group cooperation with doctors
Modern medicine depends on the specific data collection and judgment, conclusion as one of the important components, the image about the clinical doctors treatment and consultation. Medical imaging as an important branch discipline, obtained by various image types, evaluation, analysis, judgement has a deep research and discussion, the nature of the medical image doctor in complicated diseases, has the irreplaceable status in the assessment of prognosis.
Medical image of the business can be a completely digital form, thus able to merge with the depth of the Internet. Transfers of data through the Internet, platform, there are no obstacles. Therefore the diagnosis process can be completely separated from patients themselves, through the image data as support, with the help of remote power the doctor, for the progress of the disease, nature, after the judgment and evaluation.
For medical imaging center, only have equipment as flow entry may not be enough, let more doctors to participate, to be able to better improve equipment efficiency, making full use of the advantages of medical image center of medical resource allocation.
America's largest radioactive cloud service platform Imaging Advantage to cooperate with a large number of image doctor, for the medical center and medical Imaging group provides comprehensive medical Imaging solutions. The company has covered more than 26 states, and more than 500 certified, highly specialized radiologists, read the average response time is 23 minutes.
At home, doctors and medical imaging center group together to provide professional medical imaging diagnosis support are worthy of reference case. Such as collect medical hui shadow formed collect medical hui shadow image doctor group, specifically for its image platform provides image diagnosis report consultation and teaching service, product platform sign up hundreds of international, national and provincial experts, and about 1000 regular outsourcing read doctor, a reader to outsourcing service provides a quick response and image.
Doctors group, on the one hand can provide doctors with a relatively stable medical image consulting needs, to join the doctor use spare time to give advice to the cloud image, create more revenue for them; On the other hand can organize more activities, such as the communication between doctors, visits, lectures, etc., build up channels for them, and to help doctors to grow. In addition, the reading of medical imaging and diagnostic work, generally do not need to face to face with the patient, with the aid of network can be connected, so relative to the other department, medical image doctor group can play a more important role in medical imaging center, bring more obvious health benefits to patients.
