It mainly engaged in developing, manufacturing and marketing medical apparatus and bi-medical products. In cooperation with researchers from Peking University, the company developed its leading product ---- the High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) tumor therapy system which is used for the treatment of solid cancers and benign tumors. Besides, the Company's research in chemiluminescence technology has made it to be the first China-based company to successfully grasp the core technology, and the first to have a platform to develop and manufacture both equipment and reagents.

The cooperation of our institute with Yuande company was a new exploration to combine the power of the research organization, the company and the market and an important attempt to quicken the transformation of science and technology results. It is firmly believed that this cooperation mode will promote the medical acoustic research in our institute, bring more and more research fruits, serve the market and clients better and better, and finally achieve the mutual benefit for our institute and the company.
