The National Taiwan University Cancer Center is funded by donations from the TSE Health Foundation, and Terry Guo is the founder of the foundations.

Sunday afternoon at the Beams Locating Ceremony Terry Guo, National Taiwan University President Yang Pan-Chyr, and Hospital Director Ann-Lii Cheng were all in attendance, and the memorial was inscribed in the main beam. The Beam Locating Ceremony symbolized the completion of construction on the hospital’s main building structures. It is expected to begin operations in 2018.

The National Taiwan University Cancer Center consists of 15 floors above ground, and an additional 4 underground levels, and its services and facilities include inpatient care, a cell therapy center, a patient center, a preventative medicine center, outpatient treatment, and experimental research.

The National Taiwan University Cancer Center emphasizes “patient-centered” care, and integrates empirical scientific research with advanced smart medical management systems to build a “S.M.A.R.T” hospital featuring service, management, architecture, research, and technology.

The hospital will combine cell therapy and proton therapy technology in its cancer treatment program while also developing personalized and precise treatments. It is also progressing in the direction of 4.0 treatment with paperless smart hospitals and leading Taiwan’s medical technology and industry into the smart world.
