In 2019, it happened to be the first year that Nigeria officially joined the "One Belt, One Road" family. As early as 2016, President Xi Jinping proposed to create a green, healthy, intelligent and peaceful "Silk Road", which is in line with Nigeria's development plan. As the largest country in Africa, Nigeria has a population of nearly 200 million and is currently the largest economy in Africa.
Although it ranks first in Africa in terms of economic aggregates, Nigeria's medical infrastructure and imaging equipment are still poor, and lack advanced medical equipment compared to South Africa on the southern tip of the African continent. In Nigeria, most private clinics and even public hospitals lack the most basic medical imaging diagnostic equipment. The popularity of digital DR is far behind the global average. With the implementation of the “One Belt, One Road” strategy, more and more Chinese companies are taking action to enter into the Nigerian market, including Angell Technology, a medical imaging equipment manufacturer from China. Recently, Angell Technology's dynamic DR (Digital X-Ray System) has entered many medical institutions and large public imaging centers in Nigeria.
The addition of dynamic DR has brought great convenience to the daily inspection of the image center and is very popular among imaging center doctors. Angell Technology's multi-functional dynamic DR combines digital shooting, perspective, angiography, whole body stitching and many other functions. With the world's leading dynamic detector, it can realize large-format high-definition photographic imaging. For many hidden lesions that are difficult to observe, the space-occupying lesions can be dynamically observed, and the dynamic and static switching points capture key lesions, greatly improving the clinical diagnostic efficiency and accuracy of the traditional digital X-ray system. Besides that, the Angell technology dynamic multi-function DR tube rack supports a wide range of angular movements and can effectively support the movement of the equipment when performing angle photography such as calcaneus axial position, tibia axial position, and cervical vertebrae alignment. Excellent images that meet the requirements of clinical quality control. “This dynamic DR is what we have always wanted in our imaging center. It takes a lot of pictures and the image is clearer than the X-ray equipment we have ever seen before. It can also perform perspective function, contrast function. Now, through the dynamic observation function of this device, we can clearly see the information of the lesion. We have never seen such a feature-rich X-ray machine in Nigeria. Its versatility is very suitable for our image center demand. Till now, we are very satisfied with the service. I really didn't expect China's medical technology to develop so rapidly. I hope that I will have the opportunity to visit the Chinese factory in the future to learn more about Chinese technology."
As one of the most technologically advanced and fastest-growing areas in the health industry, medical devices are an important criterion for measuring the level of manufacturing and high-tech development in a country. In particular, with the “One Belt, One Road” initiative responding widely across the globe, the “One Belt, One Road” concept and action will be a catalyst for the transformation and upgrading of China's medical industry's intelligent manufacturing technology.
Today's Africa, despite its risks and challenges, remains one of the most dynamic and promising regions in the world. As a representative of the national medical enterprise, Angell Technology will always adhere to the mission of “Have a more beautiful life”, actively responding to the national call, following the pace of national strategy, and continuing to uphold the spirit of openness, cooperation and innovation for global medical health. Make a contribution to the cause.
