Hangzhou, China, Dec. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- WORK Medical Technology Group LTD (Nasdaq: WOK) (“WORK Medical” or the “Company”), a supplier of medical devices in China, through its subsidiary, Work (Hangzhou) Medical Treatment Equipment Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries in China, today announced that its subsidiary, Hunan Saitumofei Co., Ltd., has received manufacturing approval from the Hunan Provincial Medical Products Administration for its Class II medical device, the Artificial Intelligence (“AI”)-Automated Human Blood Cell Morphology Analyzer. This regulatory approval represents a milestone in WORK Medical’s research and development strategy and is expected to position the Company’s new AI-driven device as a key growth catalyst.

The analyzer consists of a main unit and embedded analysis software. The main unit integrates an optical imaging system, sample-handling module, barcode scanner, automatic oil-immersion unit, control board, and protective housing. It performs white blood cell differential counts on human blood smears and quantifies morphological parameters of red blood cells and platelets, supporting clinicians in cell morphology screening. Powered by advanced AI automation, the analyzer combines high-speed digital imaging, deep-learning algorithms, and a fully automated workflow to identify, pre-classify, and describe the morphology of white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets in peripheral blood smears. The analyzer, scheduled to begin manufacturing in the first half of 2026, is designed to enhance efficiency, consistency, and accuracy in microscopic examinations while reducing manual workload and operational costs.

Mr. Shuang Wu, the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors of WORK Medical, commented: “This new analyzer integrates cutting-edge AI technology into traditional medical testing, improving consistency, efficiency, and accuracy while minimizing manual intervention and associated costs. The device has progressed from an auxiliary image-reading tool into a fully automated, standardized, and remotely accessible core testing platform. With continuous AI-algorithm iteration and pipeline integration, it is expected to become standard equipment in hematology and oncology departments at tertiary hospitals and primary-care laboratories, and is aimed to provide support for early screening of blood disorders, quality-control enhancement, and labor-cost optimization. We are optimistic about this product line’s growth and its revenue potential for the Company.”
