Shanghai Proton and Heavy Ion Center: China's Pioneer in Particle Radiotherapy
Shanghai Proton and Heavy Ion Center (SPHIC) is the first and only hospital in China dedicated to advanced proton and heavy ion radiotherapy.
Opened in 2015, SPHIC is a joint initiative of the Shanghai Municipal Government and Fudan University Cancer Hospital. It uses the world's most advanced particle therapy technologies, capable of precisely destroying tumors while sparing healthy tissue — ideal for complex and inoperable cancers such as brain tumors, pediatric cancers, head & neck cancers, pancreatic cancer, and more.
🏆 National Recognition
SPHIC is part of China's National Major Science and Technology Infrastructure and is the first in Asia and sixth globally to provide carbon ion therapy. Its International Patient Center offers fully bilingual services, second opinions, and streamlined access for global patients.
