Explore our luminous sky ceilings in healthcare and commercial installations

Tohoku University Hospital incorporated a Luminous SkyCeiling above their Varian TrueBeam Linear Accelerator to reduce patient stress and anxiety during treatment sessions.

TUH can treat a variety of tumors using advanced treatment techniques, including image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT), intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), and RapidArc® radiotherapy technology while enabling patients to feel as relaxed as possible with the visual and spatial comfort of Sky Factory’s bi-sensory Open Sky Compositions.

The illusory sky floods the patient’s focal and peripheral vision with the comforting hue of open blue skies, triggering an automatic relaxation response in the physiology. Relaxed patients help these expensive treatments to run smoothly.

Tohoku University Hospital was founded over two centuries ago (1817) when the Sendai Medical School Dispensary opened its doors. In 1913, it was renamed the Tohoku Imperial University Specialized Medical Department Clinic, and since then has expanded into the modern day Tohoku University Hospital (TUH).

TUH is a large public hospital with 57 departments and 1,262 beds. The hospital offers diagnostic and therapeutic treatment using advanced medical equipment by healthcare professionals who aim to provide patient-centered care.
