Since the reform and opening-up of China, Chinese medical device industry has achieved remarkable development which draws worldwide attention. Especially since the beginning of 21st Century, the whole industry has entered a fast-growing stage, with the total sales amount surging approximately tenfold from CNY 17.9 billion in 2001 to forecasted CNY 212 billion in 2013. In recent years Japanese medical device market size has been around USD 26 billion, equivalent to less than CNY 160 billion. Therefore, we believe in 2013 China overtook Japan to become the world’s second largest medical device market, just after USA.
