In recent days, China’s manufacturers of pet medical equipment, BK, have presented the NASDAQ screen in Times Square in New York City, demonstrating their dual-drive concept of “tech+services” and global market outcomes. The presentation coincided with the release of the State Council's Opinion on the Further Implementation of Artificial Intelligence Plus, reflecting the progress made by Chinese enterprises in the field of human well-being.
Policy direction and industry empowerment
In August 2025, the State Council issued an Opinion on the Further Implementation of Artificial Intelligence Plus, which explicitly calls for the promotion of the use of artificial intelligence in the field of human well-being, including “the orderly promotion of the application of artificial intelligence in the context of complementary diagnostics, health management, health-care services, etc., to significantly increase the capacity and efficiency of health services at the grass-roots level”. The operational model of VCM is highly consistent with this strategic direction and improves the accessibility and quality of PMS through artificial intelligence techniques. Patient medical treatment is a positive response to and practice of this national strategy, as the country ' s leading manufacturer of pet medical equipment, with the AI-aided diagnostic system, the localized DeepSeek deployment and organ separation AI functions.
In March 2025, Bingkang announced the completion of the localization of DeepSeek, which provided its pet DR equipment with a strong AI analytical capability. The system contains a database of big pet cases covering a wide range of common and rare disease images.
The color enhancement + organ division AI function, which will be developed, further enhances diagnostic accuracy. Its core AI algorithm allows for the in-depth analysis of pet DR images, the automatic separation of organ functions and the precise mapping of the boundaries of each organ.
It is particularly important for the observation of micro-organisms, even very small organs within pet objects, to be clearly identified and analysed with the help of AI. Colour-enhanced technology highlights the pathological regions in a distinct colour, in contrast to normal tissue.
For young veterinarians, essential AI technology reduces learning costs significantly. They can make accurate judgements more quickly by drawing on AI ' s analysis and combining their expertise.
II. Technological breakthroughs and indicator validation
Precautionary pet care is the only firm in the industry that has published three key performance indicators and achieved all of them:
• Stable achievement of high-pressure power
Radiation doses below national and EU standards
:: Image resolution of 3.6 LP/mm or more
The company has advanced the use of artificial intelligence technology at the diagnostic stage, and the self-researched AIS-aided diagnostic system has been successfully applied to daily clinical scenes, improving the efficiency and accuracy of diagnostics.
Market performance and global outreach
In the first half of 2025, domestic sales of essential pet DRs exceeded 600, with a market share of 45 per cent, a global installed total of more than 2,000, covering more than 20 countries and regions, including the Middle East and South-East Asia. This market performance reflects the competitive advantage driven by technological innovation.
IV. Innovative models: co-construction of radiology units
An integrated service of equipment, training, remote diagnostic support and operational advice for pet clinics has been introduced, lowering the threshold and operating cost of video diagnosis in small and medium-sized clinics. The model has been implemented in mainland China, the Middle East and South-East Asia.
V. QUALITY SYSTEMS AND SERVICE SECURITY
In 2025, it was certified by ISO 9001 and ISO 13485, which standardized the entire chain of R & D, production to service. The company has established a global network of services, maintaining average response time within 48 hours and providing free replacement guarantees for damage to equipment caused by natural disasters.
Future development planning
It will continue to expand the global practice of “co-construction radiology” to promote the integration of AI with remote diagnostics and the wider accessibility of efficient and professional pet medical resources. This plan is in line with the objective of “promoting inclusive sharing of artificial intelligence” set out in the Opinion on Further Implementation of the “Advisory Intelligence Plus”.
Conclusion
The path to development of essential pet care is a reflection of the fallout of the "Advisory Intelligence Plus" initiative in the area of pet medical equipment, demonstrating innovative practices of deep integration of artificial intelligence technology with the human domain. With the further implementation of AI+, more Chinese enterprises are expected to compete in the global market through technological and model innovations.
