As part of a robotic surgery training program held from October 30 to November 4, Hue Central Hospital (HCH) partnered with Van Hanh General Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City to conduct remote robotic surgery simulations using two Kangduo SR2000 surgical robot systems. This marks the first time such an online, hands-on robotic surgery training model has been implemented in Vietnam, marking a new step forward in applying advanced technology to the training and transfer of modern surgical techniques.

On October 21, Hue Central Hospital held a scientific workshop titled ‘Application of Robotic Technology in Spinal Surgery’. The event marked an important step toward adopting advanced technologies and strengthening Vietnam’s capacity to treat complex spinal conditions.

On the afternoon of March 30th, Hue Central Hospital announced that it had signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with MicroPort MedBot (China) and Hanoi Foreign Medical (HFM) to establish the first Vietnam-China Robotic Surgery Training Center in Vietnam. This is considered an important step in the strategy for developing high-tech medicine, contributing to enhancing professional capacity and international integration of Vietnam’s healthcare sector.
