The Double Ninth Festival, also known as the Chong Yang Festival, is a traditional Chinese holiday celebrating good health and long life. It is a great opportunity for people to show their love and care to the elderly by visiting relatives and going outdoors to enjoy the nice fall weather with friends and family. It falls on the 9th day of the ninth month on Chinese lunar calendar.
On this very special day, MGI proudly supported Hubei Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine to provide voluntary ultrasound diagnosis services for the elderly in a local nursing home in Wuhan. Empowered by MGI robotic ultrasound system, sonographers can perform remote real-time ultrasound examination for patients 20 kilometers away, making it possible for the elderly to receive high-quality medical services from the comfort of their homes.

"There are two key points in the ultrasonic examination: the flexibility of the robotic arm and the quality of the ultrasonic images. MGIUS-R3 can equip multiple sensitive ultrasound probes on its robotic arm that allows real-time synchronization of manual operation throughout the process to perfectly reproduce the movement and simulate angles. It also allows remote parameters adjustment in real-time, including frequency, gain, depth and focus." Said Yan Wei , director of the Ultrasound Imaging Department of Hubei Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
An elder lady after the examination said: "This examination is really different, MGI's remote ultrasound robot gives remote real-time diagnosis without a physician here. Now we can receive high-quality medical services without getting out the house."
