Bridging Borders in Global Minimally Invasive Surgery

Mindray’s Minimally Invasive Surgical Solutions: Providing Comprehensive Care

kv
"If organ transplantation is the crown of surgical science, then minimally invasive transplantation surgery is undoubtedly the most radiant jewel atop that crown."

In spring 2025, 27 international surgeons gathered at West China Hospital of Sichuan University in Chengdu for the 3rd Belt and Road Initiative Liver Minimally Invasive Technology International Training Course.

Mindray, in collaboration with renowned experts from around the world, demonstrated 29 minimally invasive hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) surgeries to dozens of scholars from countries that have joined the Belt and Road Initiative.

Unleashing Every Ounce for that Sliver of Hope

“Every life that can be saved deserves our utmost effort,” said Wu Hong, Vice President of West China Hospital of Sichuan University and liver transplant specialist.

This is also one of the reasons why the Belt and Road Initiative Liver Minimally Invasive Technology International Training Course continues to be held. High-level and high-caliber academic exchanges help bring innovative surgical concepts, methods, and approaches to general surgeon and enhance the level of minimally invasive liver surgery in Belt and Road countries to better serve patients with more visualized, controllable, quantifiable, precise, and less invasive surgeries.

The Belt and Road Initiative Liver Minimally Invasive Technology International Training Course has in its third year. Surgeons from both developing countries and developed countries have come to learn. This holds great significance for enhancing the global influence of China’s hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery and showcasing China’s hepatobiliary surgery on the global academic stage.

China’s expertise on liver cancer treatments, both surgical and interventional, is at the forefront internationally. During this training course, we shared advanced techniques and concepts without reservation, hoping everyone could work together to improve the level of hepatobiliary surgery and medical care among Belt and Road countries.

Through such exchanges, we promote China’s comprehensive treatments and surgical techniques for hepatobiliary tumors, particularly our guidelines for treating diseases like liver cancer, to Belt and Road countries. This allows China’s advanced surgical techniques and medical technologies to reach international hospitals, medical schools, and operating rooms to benefit more patients.

There are many patients in China. Compared to doctors in other countries, we have accumulated more cases and practical experience. And due to the overall development of China’s technology and manufacturing industries in recent years, we now have access to the best medical equipment which is on par with, or even surpasses, some international surgical equipment. This technology can help transform practical experience into doctrines and theories and allow China’s overall medical capabilities to lead the world.

The Path of Digital Intelligence
Bridging Technology to the Journey towards Health

At the Belt and Road Initiative Liver Minimally Invasive Technology International Training Course, international surgical experts discussed topics including endoscope and ultrasound fusion solution, artificial intelligence, multidisciplinary team collaboration (MDT), and clinical academic research.

Dr. Fawaz from Chile was deeply impressed by “endoscope and ultrasound fusion solution” (real-time intraoperative ultrasound navigation technology) and said, “China’s experience integrating ultrasound imaging with minimally invasive surgery imaging provides us with new ideas to overcome clinical bottlenecks.

With the continuous advancement of surgical science and techniques, China’s intelli-digital surgical solutions have also begun to emerge on the international stage, becoming a key focal point of attention in the field of surgical medicine.

Laparoscopic living donor liver transplantation is a highly challenging procedure and surgical equipment and consumables are key influencing factors. It not only requires overall intraoperative anesthesia stability for the patient, but also places high demands on the surgeon’s surgical field of view and the precision of cutting and coagulation. What Mindray provides is not merely a single product, but a complete surgical solution that makes the entire surgical process safer and more efficient, while helping to further improve the patient’s postoperative outcome.

Xi Bin

General Manager of Patient Monitoring & Life Support (PMLS), China Market, Mindray

Everything surgeons care about during surgery is exactly what we care about. We aim to excel in surgical equipment and consumables and to provide doctors with a more comprehensive surgical field of view. For example, smarter extraction of patient information, integration of anesthesia machines and monitors, and the development of a fully digital and smart operating room solution can help surgeons work from a “God’s-eye view.”

I see that China has an extremely strong capability to integrate scientific research resources. Whether in the efficiency of technology development or in translational clinical research, they have provided us with important references for optimizing our country’s medical innovation ecosystem.

Faiza Hashim Soomro

Director of Surgery, Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, United Kingdom

China’s breakthroughs in medical digitalization and integration have made it easier and faster to provide a precise diagnosis and treatment, and have inspired us to address the problem of uneven distribution of medical resources through technology-driven inclusivity.

From traditional open surgeries to minimally invasive organ transplantation, Chinese surgeons are advancing China’s surgical field to the international forefront through continuous effort and relentless exploration. China’s medical technology is a powerful force in the vast current.

Along this journey, with sincerity and mutual understanding, we will make advanced technologies more accessible and share high-quality life care with more people.
