Dongkuk Life Science Co., Ltd. (CEO Jaewon Park) announced that it will participate in ‘MEDI EXPO KOREA 6’, which will be held at EXCO in Daegu for three days from Friday, June 30th to Sunday, July 7nd.
Dongkuk Life Science was established in May 2017 through a physical spin-off from Dongkuk Pharmaceutical, and produces diagnostic medicines such as X-ray contrast medium ‘Pamiray’ and MRI contrast medium ‘Uniray’ made by synthesizing its own raw materials, as well as mobile CT, ultrasound, AI (artificial intelligence), etc. We provide total solutions related to diagnosis, including imaging diagnostic equipment and self-reported blood glucose meters.
The portable compact CT (Mobile CT) ‘Smart M’ presented at this exhibition is a product that complements the shortcomings of existing CT equipment, which had many limitations such as price and problems securing installation space. Its advantage is that it can be installed in a small space and with low investment costs. It was selected as
Regarding this, an official from Dongkuk Life Science explained, “In the case of portable small CT, we are selling it to various hospitals in Korea, contributing to enabling CT imaging at nearby hospitals, and in fact, it is being used in a variety of ways in major orthopedic and neurosurgery departments in Korea.” . In addition, the ability to capture high-resolution images of the head, cervical spine, limbs, and joints up to 42 cm, and the ability to create three-dimensional 3D images was also cited as a feature.
We also introduce the blood sugar meter ‘Contour Plus One’. This is a product from ‘Ascensia Diabetes Care’, a global diabetes management company. It is equipped with a Second-Chance Sampling™ function, so if the blood volume on the test strip is insufficient, the same test strip is returned within 60 seconds. It is economical because it can be reused. In addition, it helps obtain accurate blood sugar levels of ±8.5% as a result of clinical evaluation.
In addition, the results can be easily read with green, yellow, and red LEDs depending on the blood sugar level, providing intuitive feedback, and the Contour diabetes APP, which is linked via Bluetooth, allows users to systematically manage their blood sugar levels.
An official said, “We will introduce Dongkuk Life Science to customers visiting the Daegu Metropolitan City Conference of the Korean Radiological Association, which is scheduled as a side event of the 2023 Medi Expo Korea, and introduce Mobile CT and self-blood glucose meters to general customers visiting the exhibition. “We want to provide a special experience,” he said. “In order to provide healthy diabetes information and management methods at this Medi Expo, we have prepared various events, including a free blood sugar testing experience.”
He continued, “In order to meet the increasing needs of customers for healthcare and provide differentiated value as a diagnostic company, we are planning to continuously launch new products and participate in various events, such as ‘Contour Plus Elite’, which is scheduled to be released in October.” “We want to leap forward as a Total Patient Care Solution Company by developing a portfolio that can link everything from diagnosis to treatment and surgery.”
