Philips Innovates Healthcare with AI Solutions at CIIE 2025: Transforming China’s Medical Landscape

Philips Advances AI-Driven Healthcare Innovations in China at 8th CIIE

Shanghai, November 10, 2025 — Philips puts more money into AI health work in China. At the 8th China International Import Expo in Shanghai, the firm showed new ideas that link smart tech and health. They want to use China’s fast-growing digital health scene.

Liu Ling, Head of Philips Greater China, said in an interview with Xinhua, "AI now helps solve many problems in our medical systems. We see a strong push for new ways to treat patients in China." Philips took part in the expo for the eighth year in a row. This time, the firm brought about 50 new ideas. These ideas touch on clear tests, smart imaging, and care made just for you.

One new tool is Philips’ MRI machine called the MR7700. This machine makes clear, radiation-free images. It showed up in China for the first time at the expo. Philips also shared AI-powered items for daily care, like an electric toothbrush and shaver. Each item ties smart tech with health in a close way.

Liu said China ranks as a very large market for AI tech. The nation also faces many cases where AI may help in care. China built over 400 main AI models and has given out more than 100 licenses for AI health tools. Philips has mixed AI in fast MRI scans, smart tests in hospitals, and care tools for home use.

China’s AI health work grows fast. New digital systems and government support push this growth. A study shows the market may jump from 8.8 billion yuan (about $1.2 billion) in 2023 to 315.7 billion yuan by 2033. This jump shows a steady rise each year.

This year, China began a national AI Plus plan. The plan sets new ways to use AI for tests and care. It helps local clinics do more with less.

Philips now works with many hospitals. They put in a faster MRI that works three times as quick. This change helps doctors and makes patients feel better. Liu said teams from different fields work together to build strong ties in health care.

Philips also cares for the earth. In Suzhou, Philips built a 1.5 tesla MRI that does not need liquid helium. The machine uses less power and helps the environment. Over 2,000 of these systems now work in China and abroad.

"China is not only our second largest market but a key part of our global plan," Liu said.

The 8th China International Import Expo remains a main place for world tech leaders like Philips to bring new ideas and work with China’s growing health sector.
