"It can scan about 300 people a day, and each CT examination takes less than 2 minutes. It is equipped with an ultraviolet automatic disinfection device." On March 17, in the production workshop of Guangdong MinFound Medical Technology Co Ltd. (referred to as "MinFound"), deputy general manager Zhao Yonghua pointed to the "CT Ark" machine that was originated by the company.

As an effective mean of COVID-19 diagnose, CT examination has played an important role in this anti-epidemic battle. After learning of the special requirements of COVID-19 epidemic prevention work at the beginning of the Spring Festival, MinFound quickly organized experts to work overtime to carry out research and development, and finally launched CT Ark.

CT Ark is a mobile, multi-functional and intelligent new emergency special CT equipment. The operation room and the scanning room are separated, making the perfect scanning-disinfection-scanning loop and avoiding cross infection between medical staff and patients.

After CT Ark was launched on the market, it was immediately sent to Wuhan Cabinet Hospitals with investment from the MinFound Medical and Tencent Foundation, greatly improving the diagnosis and treatment ability of the hostpitals.

Guangdong MinFound Medical Technology Co Ltd settled in Zhongshan's Torch Development Zone in 2017 and achieved rapid development in a short period of three years. It has become the only domestic enterprise with independent intellectual property CT detectors and the first manufacturer in the world to realize digital PET-CT industrialization.

When it comes to future development, Zhao Yonghua is full of confidence: "Last year, the output value of our Zhongshan factory area exceeded 90 million yuan. Next, we plan to build a Southeast China headquarters in Zhongshan. Currently, we are planning to purchase land and expand production capacity. In 2021, MinFound is going to be listed on the Sci-Tech innovation board (STAR Market)."
