【理大與新加坡國立大學簽署合作備忘錄|推動 AI 賦能的醫療創新】

香港理工大學(理大)宣佈與新加坡國立大學(NUS)正式簽署合作備忘錄(MoU),以加速醫療創新方案的落地與應用。

膝關節炎是一種有機會損害長者身心功能和生活質素的慢性退化性疾病。為應對膝關節炎,理大生物醫學工程系副教授溫春毅教授帶領研究團隊,研發出創新的人工智能生物力學評估工具「膝關照」,可用於膝關節炎的早期識別與介入。此項技術榮獲2021年TechConnect 全球創新獎及2022年香港資訊及通訊科技獎。憑藉理大創新成果,溫教授及其團隊於香港政府的「創科生活基金」支持下,自2023年起展開全港首個社區性膝骨關節炎篩查,至今已服務超過1,800名長者,相關研究更於國際期刊發表結果(https://shorturl.at/3ImgA)。

是次合作備忘錄進一步鞏固雙方就人工智能工具「膝關照」在臨床實踐中的落地合作,並推動未來醫學跨域與學術研究的深度對接。這亦是新加坡國立大學(NUS)骨科學系首次引入源自香港、聚焦膝關節炎的 AI 技術與實踐經驗,期望在基層醫療層面推進骨科發展,並強化香港與東南亞地區的學術合作。

是次合作備忘錄由理大生物醫學工程學系副教授溫春毅教授與NUS楊潞齡醫學院骨科學系研究總監兼副教授杜韋熊教授簽署,並由理大協理副校長(知識轉移)董澄教授及NUS楊潞齡醫學院副院長(研究)符策賢教授見證。

簽署儀式後設有「膝關照」現場示範體驗,讓與會者親身感受系統功能。「膝關照」將於NUS推行應用,以惠及更多使用者。藉著結合理大與NUS的優勢,可望進一步提升社區層面的膝關節炎識別與管理,從而更早介入、優化轉介與分流過程,並減輕醫院服務的壓力。

【MoU Signing Ceremony between PolyU and NUS|Advancing AI-enabled Healthcare Innovations】

The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) is pleased to announce the formalisation of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the National University of Singapore (NUS) to accelerate the adoption of healthcare innovations.

Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a chronic degenerative disease which can hamper the functioning and the quality of life of older adults. To address KOA, Prof. Chunyi WEN, Associate Professor, Department of Biomedical Engineering of PolyU, leads a research team that has developed an innovative AI-empowered biomechanical assessment tool, KneeVidScan to enable early identification and intervention of knee osteoarthritis. This technology has been recognised with TechConnect Global Innovation Award 2021 and Hong Kong ICT Award 2022. By leveraging PolyU’s innovation, Prof. Wen and his team launched the first community screening programme for knee osteoarthritis in Hong Kong in 2023 and have since served more than 1,800 older adults under the auspices of HKSAR Government’s Innovation and Technology Fund for Better Living. The related results were recently published in a prestigious scholarly journal from Nature Portfolio (https://shorturl.at/3ImgA).

This MoU strengthens our shared commitment to the implementation of the AI tool, KneeVidScan, in real-world clinical practice, and to future academic–clinical partnerships. This is the first time the NUS Department of Orthopaedic Surgery has introduced Hong Kong’s AI technology and expertise in knee osteoarthritis to Singapore, helping to advance precision orthopaedics in the primary healthcare setting. This will help strengthen academic collaboration between Hong Kong and Southeast Asia.

The MoU was signed by Prof. Chunyi WEN, Associate Professor, Department of Biomedical Engineering of PolyU, and Prof. Wei Seong TOH, Research Director and Associate Professor, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine of NUS, and witnessed by Prof. Cheng D**G, Associate Vice President (Knowledge Transfer) of PolyU, and Prof. Roger FOO, Vice-Dean (Research), Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine of NUS.

A live demonstration of KneeVidScan followed the signing ceremony, giving participants first-hand experience with the system. Going forward, KneeVidScan will be deployed at NUS to benefit more users. By leveraging the combined strengths of PolyU and NUS, the identification and management of knee osteoarthritis in community settings can be enhanced, enabling earlier intervention, streamlining care navigation and right-siting, and reducing downstream pressure on hospital services.
