Gansu Wuwei Heavy Ion Center - Carbon Ion Cancer Treatment

After ten years of construction and six years of clinical practice, Wuwei Tumor Hospital in Gansu Province has delivered an inspiring "Chinese answer sheet." The Wuwei Heavy Ion Center was officially put into use in March 2020, and the Lanzhou Heavy Ion Center began to see patients in November 2024, forming a unique "one body with two wings" dual-center coordinated pattern of Wuwei and Lanzhou globally.

On September 17, 2026, the International Training Program on Clinical Application of Carbon Ion Therapy System (Third Session) was launched at the Wuwei Heavy Ion Cancer Center. It gathers top experts from around the world to share the technological achievements and clinical standardization experiences of domestically developed heavy ion technology, promoting the high-quality development of heavy ion therapy.

In the golden autumn, we gather for a grand event, opening our doors to the future. The 2026 China International Fair for Trade in Services (CIFTIS) grandly opened in Beijing.

Experts from the medical and health sectors of multiple countries visited the Wuwei Heavy Ion Center for exchanges and learning. As a benchmark for the clinical effectiveness of domestically produced heavy ion therapy, the center has attracted global experts to conduct inspections, share "Chinese experiences," and promote international medical cooperation and technological progress.

In July 2026, cutting-edge achievements in China's heavy ion therapy sparked widespread discussion at the BMIT-GRN International Academic Symposium. Wuwei Cancer Hospital showcased its first independently developed heavy ion system and AI-enabled innovative projects, covering over a hundred types of tumors with efficacy surpassing international standards, thereby promoting deep integration of industry, academia, and research as well as enhanced international collaboration.
