Explore our luminous sky ceilings in healthcare and commercial installations

Tohoku University Hospital decided to pair its radiotherapy equipment with a split image Luminous SkyCeiling.

TUH features an Electa digital linear accelerator that employs precision radiation medicine that allows technicians to tailor the radiotherapy treatments with a high definition dynamic volumetric arc delivery technique. At the same time, the hospital gives patients in treatment the physiological comfort of biophilic illusions of nature. 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.
