BEIJING: Since its establishment in 1985, the Internal Medicine Professional Committee of the Xinjiang Medical Association has been dedicated to fostering academic exchanges within the field of internal medicine.
Through a series of well-organized conferences and seminars, the committee has provided a vital platform for experts, scholars and doctors in Northwest China’s Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region to share ideas, disseminate new knowledge and promote the adoption of cutting-edge technologies. In December, for example, the committee hosted a cardiology conference in Urumqi, the capital of Xinjiang, which brought together a diverse group of distinguished international and domestic professionals. This conference, conducted both online and offline, featured advanced academic presentations, clinical experience sharing and practical skills training tailored to grassroots physicians.
In addition to the cardiology conference, the committee has recently organized events such as a seminar on advanced internal medicine diagnosis and treatment technology and a forum focused on chronic disease management in grassroots hospitals.
These initiatives have facilitated the integration of innovative technologies, such as artificial intelligence-assisted diagnostic tools, to enhance the diagnostic accuracy in complex cases in Xinjiang.
“The true effect of academic conferences transcends mere learning; it ultimately benefits a greater number of patients,” said Ma Xiang, the committee’s chairman and director of the cardiology center at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University. –The Daily Mail-China Daily news exchange item
