UnionStrong® Stories | Chairlady Qin Lan: Harnessing AI Computing Power to Transform Neurointerventional Surgery

Qin Lan, Founder and Chairlady of UnionStrong®, shared her insights into AI-powered neurovascular care at the 2026 Computing Power Industry Ecosystem Conference, highlighting how AI-native robotics could transform complex neurointerventional procedures.

With over 20 years of experience in neurovascular healthcare, Qin emphasized that conventional neurointerventional surgery requires exceptional expertise and remains highly dependent on individual surgeons' skills, creating challenges for standardization and broader access to advanced treatment.

To address these challenges, UnionStrong® developed its pioneering AI Catheter Shaping Robot, integrating AI-powered 3D vascular reconstruction, catheter pathway simulation, intelligent surgical planning, and automated catheter shaping.

Unlike conventional surgical robots that primarily extend surgeons' manual capabilities, UnionStrong®'s AI-native approach aims to translate complex procedural expertise into computationally optimized, reproducible workflows. Its technology has also received China's Class III medical device registration.

Through continued Medicine-Engineering Integration and Clinical Translation, UnionStrong® seeks to reduce dependence on individual surgical experience, support younger physicians, and improve access to advanced neurovascular care, contributing to a more intelligent, standardized, and accessible healthcare future.
