美时医疗 Time Medical  
美时医疗技术有限公司是一家具有自主知识产权的医疗诊断设备研发和制造企业，也是全球高端医疗设备和技术的创新公司之一。公司致力于向全球的医疗诊断客户提供完善的医学成像技术解决方案，包括医学影像系统的开发、设计、制造、销售和维护。公司拥有自主创新的技术平台，拥有几十项专利。美时医疗拥有一支世界一流的研发团队及国际水平的管理团队，创新团队来自美国哥伦比亚大学、哈佛医学院，由马启元教授领军，并拥有美国哥伦比亚大学转让的相关知识产权。
公司目前在美国、中国大陆及香港设有研发中心和分支机构。公司在中国国家医药产业开发区——中国医药城建立了永久研发生产基地。目前产能为年产150台，公司正在开展二期扩产项目，投产后将使美时医疗的生产规模达500台，成为亚洲最大的磁共振系统生产基地。
美时医疗是全球首家开发出高温超导线圈技术并将其用于磁共振扫描设备的临床应用的公司。该技术将人体图像分辨率与清晰度在现有仪器的基础上提高了200－300%。鉴于高温超导线圈技术作为近期全球磁共振成像领域的一大突破，全球知名的品牌和市场调研公司Frost & Sullivan授予美时医疗“2010年亚太地区医学影像产品年度创新产品奖”，这是中国企业首次获得此项国际年度创新大奖荣誉，并被人民日报誉为“瞄准百姓需求”的技术。
2011年，美时医疗推出复合型PICA全身磁共振系统，通过了美国FDA、中国SFDA和欧洲CE认证。复合型PICA拥有强大的软硬件平台和个性化临床解决方案，借助高温超导线圈，使图像信噪比可以达到中高场磁共振的水平。这一革命性的解决方案将彻底改变发展中国家缺乏现代医疗诊断服务的现状。
美时医疗不断研发新型磁共振系统。2012年美时医疗开发出亚洲首台骨科专用机MONA，并已获FDA和SFDA认证。目前正在研发全球首台1.5T婴儿磁共振系统，其首台样机将于2013年底完成。2012年公司承担着国家科技部“十二五”科技支撑计划的重大攻关项目——开发全球首台2T复合型磁共振系统，从而树立起医疗磁共振技术的“中国标准”。
美时医疗研发的复合型PICA磁共振成像系统已在国内外市场销售。国内外著名的医院，包括卫生部直属的北京医院及美国加州大学圣地亚哥医学院附属医院，以及东南亚、印度、美国及国内40多家医院都已经配置自主创新的美时医疗产品。2011年底，美时医疗在印尼卫生部磁共振集中采购招标中胜出，获得全部9台订单，装备于印尼8个省的9家医院。目前海内外有26台PICA系统运营超过一年，实现全年零故障。


Professor Q.Y. Ma., Ph.D., the company’s founder, chairman and CEO, is a renowned leader in the fields of microelectronics and biomedical engineering.

Prof. Ma has more than 20 years of translational research and commercialization experience to his credit, is widely published, and holds more than dozen medical imaging technology patents. He earned his Ph.D from Columbia University in New York City, where he maintains his position as associate professor of engineering. He also is an associate professor of radiology at Harvard Medical School and Deputy director of the Jockey Club MRI Centre at the University of Hong Kong. Prof. Ma has a rich history of collaboration with leading biomedical device manufacturers and prestigious healthcare institutions in the U.S. and abroad.

Time Medical System (TM) was founded in 2007 by Prof. Ma, and his leadership team, includes an international group of scientists, engineers, clinicians, healthcare executives and business leaders with expertise in finance, public policy and solutions marketing. With more than 200 published papers and 30 patents to their credit, the group owns a strong intellectual property portfolio that that includes IP transferred from Columbia University and the University of Hong Kong.

TIME MEDICAL Systems is the first company to develop and deploy HTS coil technology for use with clinical MRI scanners. Already, HTS coil technology has proven effective at overcoming the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) limitations inherent in conventional copper RF coils.

HTS Coil Technology provides a range of image quality benefits across routine and advanced clinical applications and can be applied using low-, high- or ultra-high-field MRI scanners. Additionally, HTS coils can be tuned to different frequencies, enabling hydrogen, sodium, phosphorus or other clinically-useful nuclei to be imaged. In recent imaging studies using ultra-high field MRI scanners, the SNR from HTS coils improved by 200 - 300% compared with conventional copper RF coils. Time Medical is developing a series of dedicated MRI system, including Orthopedic MR - Mona, the world first Neonatal MRI - Neona, the first breast scanner.
