    (ECNS) -- China’s science documentary "The Pulse of the Brain" that was awarded Best Medical Documentary at New York City International Film Festival (NYCIFF) last week highlights medical advancements and life care, showcasing efforts by Chinese scientists and global research institutions in combating the disease.

    Through a unique perspective and rich historical materials, the Pulse of the Brain, the world’s first science documentary that systematically presents medical battle against cerebrovascular diseases, provides a detailed account of the century-long evolution of treatment technology for cerebrovascular diseases since its inception.

    Consisting of six episodes, the documentary employs microphotography and 3D imaging to unveil medical marvels while systematically tracing the century-long development of stroke treatment technologies.

    From early "corkscrew-style" thrombectomy devices to modern non-invasive vascular treatment, the documentary showcases medical ingenuity and technological innovation.

    It was filmed over three years across six countries in Asia, Europe, and the Americas.

    The documentary was initiated by Zhang Hongqi, director of the Department of Neurosurgery at Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University, with academic guidance from academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, including Zhou Liangfu, Zhao Jizong, and Ji Xunming.

    Stroke is the leading cause of death in China, affecting over 10 million people globally each year. The Pulse of the Brain highlights medical advancements and life care, showcasing efforts by Chinese scientists and global research institutions in combating the disease.

    As the judges noted, this documentary transcends borders, illuminating the warmth of humanity through the light of science.

    NYCIFF is a prominent platform in the global documentary industry, attracting outstanding entries from dozens of countries and regions each year. Its judging criteria emphasize scientific rigor, artistic expression, and social impact, making it particularly influential in fields such as medicine and public welfare.
