LUCILE PACKARD CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL – LPCH

This 521,000-square-foot facility nearly triples the size of the existing hospital building for children next door and seamlessly reinterprets its palette of terra cotta and the use of stone from a calcareous quarry in Stanford. It has six new surgical suites, including a neuro-hybrid operating suite with direct access to 3 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) Tesla, which provides highly advanced clarity. A hybrid cardiac operating room (OR) suite and a combination of MRI / OR / interventional radiology suite are also available. A room was also built to provide sensitive radiation therapy for children with high - risk cancer with I-31 metaiodobenzylguanidine or MIBG, which places the hospital in an elite group to offer treatment.
