Abstract

Medical research and human health are deeply connected, and international medical exchanges play a important role in raising research level. This study employs bibliometric and visual analytic approaches to identify effective strategies for improving international medical collaborations. We retrieved relevant literature from the Web of Science Core Collection, including SCI-Expanded, SSCI, CPCI-S, and CPCI-SSH databases, covering the period 1992–2022. CiteSpace software was utilized to generate knowledge visualization maps. A total of 443 articles were included in the analysis. The number of publications related to international educational exchange in medicine has grown steadily over time. Keyword co-occurrence analysis identified “international educational exchange,” “higher education,” “healthcare,” and “global health” as the most prevalent terms. Remote online training has emerged as a prevalent modality for international educational exchange and cooperation. Technologies leveraging computer networks for platform-based learning have attained increasing sophistication. Future international collaboration will be characterized by openness, resource-sharing, diversity, and digitalization (intelligence).
