Beijing Children's Hospital

In 1942, the Beiping Private Children's Hospital was founded by Zhu Futang, the founder of China's modern pediatric medicine. The hospital was located in Xicheng District, Beijing, and there were only 6 beds. In 2013, the Beijing Children's Hospital Group was established, innovating a "patients stay, doctors move around" model to serve children across the country. In 2019, it was approved by the National Health Commission of the People's Republic of China to establish the National Childhood Cancer Surveillance Center. In 2025, China’s first large-scale AI model for paediatrics was launched in Beijing Children's Hospital, and was later introduced to local hospitals in the country. ==Current situation==
