Ten years of perseverance, ten years of striving forward. Since passing the National Health Commission's Class-A Tertiary Hospital evaluation in 2014, Gansu Wuwei Cancer Hospital has proudly carried this distinction for a decade - an honor we deeply cherish.
This has been an extraordinary decade of transformative development:
• China's first heavy ion treatment system took root here, completing 1,133 heavy ion therapy cases
• The hospital completed comprehensive upgrades, realizing its "One Core, Two Wings" strategic layout
Medical technologies have achieved remarkable advancements. As the first clinical application site for China's heavy ion system, the hospital has developed:
✓ High-frequency oscillatory ventilation-guided precision heavy ion therapy
✓ Bladder volume-controlled bladder cancer treatment technology
✓ Single-session heavy ion therapy with surgically implanted spacers between organs and tumors
✓ "Heavy Ion Surgical Technology" combining organ motion control (single-session treatment)
✓ Multimodal 3D medical imaging technology
✓ NOSES transanal appendectomy
✓ Robotic NOSES radical resection for rectal cancer
✓ 3D printing reconstruction
✓ Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
✓ Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
These technologies have reached nationally advanced levels in China.

Over the past decade, the hospital's management has reached new heights of modern hospital administration. As the first Class-A tertiary hospital in Gansu Province to achieve comprehensive cloud migration, we have realized the "dual-cloud" management objective of host-free work terminals and network equipment-free premises.
The hospital has established:
• An intelligent hospital command center
• Asia's longest hospital track logistics system
• IoT application systems
• Information distribution systems
• Conference systems
• Surgical demonstration systems
Leveraging information technology, we have implemented:
✓ Five-dimensional KPI evaluation
✓ DIP payment-based single-disease management
✓ 18-core medical quality management systems
These initiatives have enabled visualization of quantitative metrics and trends in hospital management, achieving new standards in modern hospital administration.
