TAIPEI MEDICAL UNIVERSITY-SHUANG HO HOSPITAL, MINISTRY OF HEALTH AND WELFARE

Shuang-Ho Hospital was opened on July 1, 2008, and it was commissioned by the Ministry of Health and Welfare and was the first Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) hospital in Taiwan, with a total of nearly 1,600 beds. In addition to acute care, the hospital also provides long-term chronic care services and has introduced advanced equipment to provide a full range of medical services, not only making it the largest hospital but also forming a network of best medical care with Taipei Medical University Hospital and Taipei Municipal Wanfang Hospital in New Taipei City.
This medical institution is committed to combine all the best teams from different disciplines to provide the public with the most complete medical system for acute and critical conditions. It is also a training hospital for senior ambulance technicians in New Taipei City and the city’s Emergency Operations Center (EOC) to coordinate a network of hospitals as response in time of medical disaster.
Shuang-Ho Hospital strives for the health and well-being of the public and continues to make breakthroughs in service, teaching, and research, and cooperates with medical institutions around the world to expand the depth and breadth of the medical profession in Taiwan. On June 1, 2023, we opened the Biomedical Technology Building of Taipei Medical University for teaching and research, for which this serves as a biotechnology research park to provide a comprehensive environment for teaching and research, as we continue to refine and set a high-quality, high-performing standard of international university hospital.

TMU TAIPEI CANCER CENTER

Proton beam therapy (Proton beam therapy, PBT) is an advanced technology in the field of radiotherapy, and it is a fairly mature technology clinically. Major hospitals and medical centers around the world have invested in the research and construction of proton therapy. The advantage of proton therapy is that it can effectively lock the tumor site, release the radiation dose, and increase the local control rate. The physical properties of the Bragg peak of the proton beam, when the proton beam penetrates human tissues, can reduce the damage to normal tissues and give high-dose effective treatment to cancer cells, which can not only achieve the goal of treatment but also reduce complications. Improve the quality of life of patients greatly. Proton therapy has become a global radiation tumor treatment trend.

Taipei Medical University system continues to integrate the research and medical resources of the university and the three affiliated hospitals and strives to develop into a world-class medical university and a world-class cancer center. Taipei Medical University Hospital began its evaluation in November 2012, knowing that the proton therapy machine is an indispensable tool for cancer radiation precision treatment, and it will become the mainstream of cancer treatment. Taipei Medical University passed the school affairs meeting in May 2013 and the board of directors in June of the same year. The task team was formed by Professor Jeng-Fong Chiou, the vice president of Taipei Medical University Hospital and director of the cancer center at the time, and began preparations and applications to the health authorities. After many applications, it is rare to obtain the approval of the Ministry of Health and Welfare at the end of 2016, one of the seven medical institutions in the country under fierce competition in the country, and the official approval letter in January 2017, to start Taipei Medical University’s milestones in cancer treatment.

The proton center of Taipei Medical University Hospital has been built for more than four years. It provided cancer patients with world-class medical technology and holistic medical care services in 2022 years. The first pediatric patient was treated by proton therapy in our hospital on 1/8/2022. The center has advanced superconducting proton therapy equipment and is expected to serve about 300 proton therapy patients each year.
