A total of 44,474 visits, including 3,318 visits to the high-level forums and workshops, were recorded during the three-day event, demonstrating that it has become a platform for representatives from international companies and medical scholars to meet and discuss state-of-the-art technology and up-to-date medical developments. Most of the visitors were purchasing supervisors (32.8%), technicians (15.2%), and company administrators (13.8%).

The exhibition featured nine conferences on topics such as orthopedics, ultrasound, radiotherapy, radiographic imaging, nuclear medicine and critical care medicine, as well as laboratory, medical engineering and physical medicine and rehabilitation.
