This quiet revolution is part of a nationwide push since 2022 to convert China’s bloated system of State Key Laboratories (SKLs) from academically driven, siloed entities into lean, mission-oriented “tech war machines” to make advances in critical fields such as

, quantum technology and brain science. With around 500 labs now approved nationwide under a restructured programme, the old model of loosely defined research has given way to a new doctrine: clear mandates, centralised funding and direct accountability to Beijing’s science supremacy agenda.

Two domestically produced photon counting spectral CT scans have been approved for market, marking a major breakthrough in domestically produced high-end medical equipment..​



1. The uCT Ultima, a photon-counting spectral CT scanner independently developed by Shanghai United Imaging Healthcare, has been officially approved for marketing.

According to the official website of the National Medical Products Administration on August 26th, the uCT Ultima, a photon-counting spectral CT scanner independently developed by Shanghai United Imaging Healthcare Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as United Imaging Healthcare), has been officially approved for marketing. This marks another major breakthrough in China's medical technology and a significant advancement in the "Photon-Counting Spectral CT R&D" project. With this, United Imaging Healthcare has become the first Chinese company globally to successfully commercialize photon-counting spectral CT.
Compared to traditional CT, photon counting spectral CT offers the advantages of higher spatial resolution, direct multi-spectral imaging, and lower radiation dose, significantly advancing precision diagnosis and treatment.

2-Neusoft Medical's photon counting CT has received marketing approval from the National Medical Products Administration.

Neusoft Medical Systems, a subsidiary of Neusoft Group (600718), recently received marketing approval for its independently developed NeuViz P10 cadmium zinc telluride photon counting CT. This is not only China's first photon counting CT, but also the world's first 8cm wide-body photon counting CT. This marks a historic breakthrough for China's high-end medical equipment industry, marking the country's transition from a "follower" to a "leader" in next-generation CT technology. The NeuViz P10, a decade of hard work and innovation in photon counting CT , is rooted in the country's unwavering support for independent innovation in high-end medical equipment. The 14th Five-Year Plan lists high-end medical imaging equipment as a key development area, vigorously promoting "domestic substitution" and addressing bottlenecks. The "Special Review Procedure for Innovative Medical Devices" established by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) also provided a key channel for the accelerated approval of the NeuViz P10.​
