全球诊断联盟（GDC）在世界卫生峰会2026上召集了来自政府、全球卫生、民间社会、行业及合作伙伴组织的领导人，旨在推动集体行动，以弥合在诊断服务可及性方面长期存在的鸿沟。 诊断是高质量卫生保健、全民健康覆盖、卫生安全和大流行病防范的基础。然而，全球仍有47%的人口无法获得及时、可靠的诊断，这限制了早期发现、治疗和有效护理的机会。 世卫组织总干事谭德塞博士在活动开幕时通过视频致辞强调，必须在危机发生前建立有韧性的卫生系统，使其具备在满足日常卫生需求的同时发现和应对卫生威胁的能力。他表示：“没有及时准确的诊断，我们就像在黑暗中飞行。” 围绕世界卫生峰会“从危机走向韧性”的主题，与会者探讨了如何将日益增长的对诊断鸿沟的认识转化为国家主导的实施工作，以及更强大、更一体化的诊断系统。 CITAMplus执行董事卡罗尔·纳维娜将诊断鸿沟对人类造成的后果带入了关注焦点。她结合自己在确诊感染艾滋病毒、肺结核和癌症之前反复寻求医疗服务的经历，阐述了延迟诊断如何导致反复就医、可避免的费用、病情恶化以及错失及时治疗的机会。 纳维娜呼吁将诊断服务更贴近社区，并围绕人群而非单个疾病来组织服务。她还敦促决策者承认社区是塑造服务、推动创新和加强问责方面的平等伙伴。“我们的经历不仅仅是会议上分享的故事，而是必须为决策提供依据并指导投资的证据，”她说。 埃及人口与卫生部放射学顾问穆罕默德·法乌齐博士分享了埃及在扩大筛查、诊断影像和远程放射学可及性方面取得进展的经验，并强调了将诊断与治疗和护理联系起来的重要性。 由达喀尔巴斯德研究所首席执行官伊布拉希马·索赫·法尔博士主持的一个专家小组汇集了全球诊断联盟（GDC）、创新新型诊断基金会（FIND）、西门子医疗、克里斯蒂安盲人传教会和盖茨基金会的领导人。小组成员呼吁进行能响应国家需求的创新，加大对诊断的投入，针对人力和基础设施制约采取行动，建立更有效的监管路径，并在危机出现前做好更充分的准备。他们强调，更有力的诊断卫生和经济价值的数据与证据对于建立政治承诺和投资至关重要。明确的国家诊断优先事项也被视为使合作伙伴和融资与国家需求保持一致、避免零散且针对特定疾病的做法的关键。 在联盟启动一周年之际，世卫组织医疗器械和辅助技术团队负责人兼全球诊断联盟主席凯莉·谢伊介绍了联盟的进展，强调了GDC不断壮大的成员队伍，以及通过其三大支柱——照亮、倡导和整合——来分享知识、加强倡导和支持协调行动的工作。 在会议闭幕时，世卫组织药品和卫生产品政策与标准司司长德乌斯迪迪特·穆班吉齐呼吁各利益相关方将围绕诊断领域日益增长的势头转化为行动。“我们应当共同承担起缩小诊断差距的责任，”他说。 柏林会议标志着GDC与更广泛全球卫生界互动的一个重要里程碑。在此势头基础上，联盟将继续支持国家主导作用，加强诊断生态系统内部的协调一致，并促进合作，以扩大诊断服务的公平可及性。 欲了解更多有关GDC的信息，包括如何加入，请访问GDC网页或通过gdxc@who.int联系秘书处。

The Global Diagnostics Coalition (GDC) convened leaders from government, global health, civil society, industry and partner organizations at the World Health Summit 2026 to advance collective action to close persistent gaps in access to diagnostic services. Diagnostics are fundamental to quality health care, universal health coverage, health security and pandemic preparedness. Yet 47% of the world’s population still lacks access to a timely, reliable diagnosis, limiting opportunities for early detection, treatment, and effective care. Opening the event with a video message, WHO Director-General Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus emphasized that resilient health systems must be built before crises occur, with the capacity to detect and respond to health threats while meeting everyday health needs. “Without timely and accurate diagnostics, we’re flying blind,” he said. Against the World Health Summit theme of moving from crisis to resilience, participants examined how to translate growing recognition of the diagnostic gap into country-led implementation and stronger, more integrated diagnostic systems. Carol Nawina, Executive Director of CITAMplus, brought the human consequences of diagnostic gaps into focus. Drawing on her experience of repeatedly seeking care before being diagnosed with HIV, tuberculosis and cancer, she illustrated how delayed diagnosis can lead to repeated health-care visits, avoidable costs, worsening illness and missed opportunities for timely treatment. Nawina called for diagnostic services to be brought closer to communities and organized around people rather than individual diseases. She also urged decision-makers to recognize communities as equal partners in shaping services, informing innovation and strengthening accountability. “Our experiences are not merely stories to be shared at meetings. They are the evidence that must inform decisions and guide investments,” she said. Dr Mohamed Fawzi, Radiology Advisor to the Minister of Health and Population of Egypt, shared lessons from Egypt’s progress in expanding access to screening, diagnostic imaging and teleradiology, highlighting the importance of linking diagnosis with treatment and care. An expert panel, moderated by Dr Ibrahima Socé Fall, CEO of Institut Pasteur de Dakar, brought together leaders from the GDC, FIND, Siemens Healthineers, Christian Blind Mission and the Gates Foundation. Panelists called for innovation that responds to country needs, stronger investment in diagnostics, action on workforce and infrastructure constraints, more effective regulatory pathways, and greater preparedness before crises emerge. They emphasized that stronger data and evidence on the health and economic value of diagnostics are essential to build political commitment and investment. Clear national diagnostic priorities were also seen as critical to aligning partners and financing with country needs and avoiding fragmented, disease-specific approaches. Presenting the Coalition’s progress one year after its launch, Kylie Shae, Team Lead for Medical Devices and Assistive Technology at WHO and Chair of the Global Diagnostics Coalition, highlighted the GDC’s growing membership and work to share knowledge, strengthen advocacy and support coordinated action through its three pillars: Illuminate, Champion and Integrate. Closing the event, Deusdedit Mubangizi, Director for the Department of Medicines and Health Products Policy and Standards, WHO, called on stakeholders to translate the growing momentum around diagnostics into action. “We should carry forward a shared responsibility to close the diagnostic gap,” he said. The Berlin event marked an important milestone in the GDC’s engagement with the wider global health community. Building on this momentum, the Coalition will continue to support country leadership, strengthen alignment across the diagnostics ecosystem and foster collaboration to expand equitable access to diagnostic services.
