Aert Medical
Modern clinical oncology, neurosurgery, and complex orthopedic interventions increasingly demand real-time anatomical validation. Static preoperative imaging—historically the gold standard—often falls short during dynamic surgical interventions due to intraoperative tissue shifts, brain sag, and postural variations. As a leading high-tech enterprise, Wenzhou Aert Medical Co., Ltd. stands at the forefront of this technological shift. We specialize in the R&D, manufacture, and global deployment of advanced mobile CT systems, mobile MRI systems, and high-performance digital X-ray detectors designed to power the next generation of image-guided surgery tools.
By shifting advanced radiological imaging from dedicated diagnostic suites directly to the patient's bedside, the operating theater, and field emergency environments, we eliminate high-risk patient transfers and significantly optimize clinical decision pathways. Our proprietary imaging modalities serve as key structural pillars for navigation platforms, supplying high-contrast, low-dose volumetric data that allows surgeons to execute minimally invasive procedures with sub-millimeter precision.
At Aert Medical, our technology roadmap is designed around core physical and algorithmic challenges: minimizing patient radiation dosage, accelerating 3D reconstruction speeds, and making massive MRI magnet assemblies mobile and dynamic. Our dual-line development strategies in mobile Computed Tomography (CT) and mobile Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) represent a major leap forward in point-of-care medical hardware.
Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) provides exceptional spatial resolution for high-contrast structures like bone, but historically lacks the soft-tissue contrast and wide coverage of multi-slice spiral CTs. Aert Medical has independently developed the "Automation Balance System". This unique design merges CBCT's direct volumetric acquisition with the continuous helical scanning patterns of traditional spiral CT. Supported by our advanced reconstruction algorithms, this hybrid system achieves soft-tissue diagnostic performance comparable to standard 64-slice spiral CT systems, all while operating under a fraction of the power requirements and footprints of conventional machinery.
Through our dedicated subsidiary, Wenzhou Aert Microelectronics Technology Co., Ltd., we control the fundamental layers of our imaging chains. CMOS flat-panel detectors (FPDs) are the backbone of modern low-dose mobile CT systems, offering superior readout speeds and pixel resolution compared to older a-Si (amorphous Silicon) technology. Looking ahead, our microelectronics team is actively developing Photon Counting Detectors (PCDs). Unlike traditional energy-integrating detectors, PCDs count individual incoming X-ray photons and measure their exact energy. This direct conversion technology eliminates electronic noise, drastically improves spatial resolution, and enables multi-energy spectral imaging. This advance allows doctors to differentiate between tissue types, contrast agents, and calcifications during surgery with extreme precision.
Traditional MRI systems are constrained by heavy superconducting magnets, liquid helium cooling requirements, and strict RF shielding rooms. Aert Medical is overcoming these limits by engineering compact, low-field and ultra-low-field mobile MRI units. By utilizing highly optimized permanent magnet geometries and sophisticated active shielding, our mobile MRI units operate safely in open clinical environments. These compact scanners offer complete scanning sequences, allowing fast, intraoperative scans of the head, spine, and joints to confirm successful tumor resections or detect post-operative hemorrhages immediately.

Image-guided surgery tools cannot operate as isolated components; they must function within integrated clinical workflows. Aert Medical designs end-to-end intraoperative solutions that integrate with surgical navigation systems, hospital PACS networks, and robotic surgery arms.
Moving critically ill patients to radiology suites carries risk. Our mobile CT units navigate hospital corridors and run off standard wall outlets, providing instant imaging for acute head trauma, pulmonary embolisms, or abdominal distress directly in the ICU.
For stroke care, time saved is brain saved. Our compact mobile CT and MRI scanners fit inside specialized stroke response ambulances. First responders can perform rapid diagnostic scans on-scene, enabling immediate thrombolytic therapy or direct routing to interventional operating rooms.
During brain tumor resections, brain tissue shifts as fluid is drained and tumor mass is removed. Our ultra-low-field head mobile MRI allows the surgical team to scan the patient mid-procedure, ensuring complete resection before closure and reducing the need for revision surgeries.
"Integrating mobile, point-of-care imaging within the surgical suite changes the game for patient safety. Surgeons can verify margins, check implant placement, and diagnose complications in real time."
Operating out of Zhejiang Province's advanced industrial hub, Aert Medical utilizes a highly integrated supply chain model to deliver premium medical imaging hardware at competitive price points. Our manufacturing facilities are designed around Factory 4.0 principles, combining computerized precision with rigorous medical-grade quality control.
From the sourcing of specialized structural materials to the assembly of custom-molded high-precision enclosures and microelectronics components, every stage of our production is monitored. By co-locating R&D labs, microelectronics fabrication, and physical assembly lines, we minimize cycle times from prototyping to mass production. This vertical integration allows us to customize components rapidly, whether a client requires custom high-quality plastic injection molding for specialty sterile housings or custom mechanical hardware for specific positioning systems.
Our logistical positioning near major Chinese deep-water ports and international airports ensures consistent global shipping. We maintain strategic buffer inventories of raw materials and key microelectronic components, shielding our global clients from supply chain delays and currency volatility.
Procuring advanced medical machinery requires strict compliance with international regulatory frameworks and long-term service agreements. Aert Medical systems are engineered and documented to meet the demanding requirements of global regulatory bodies, including CE MDR, FDA 510(k), and NMPA standards. Every device is shipped with comprehensive technical files, EMI/EMC testing validation, and radiation safety records.
