The American Hospital of Paris has chosen to invest in a new photon-counting CT scanner. Use of this groundbreaking technology developed by Siemens remains rare in France.
Photon-counting CT scanners produce images with unprecedented precision, thereby improving early and granular detection of disease, particularly in cardiology and oncology. In addition, they reduce exposure to ionizing radiation, especially for children and vulnerable patients.
Our new scanner, which is expected to benefit approximately 12,000 patients annually, illustrates the innovation strategy of the American Hospital of Paris and our constant drive to promote medical excellence.
Acquiring this new scanner is perfectly in line with our Hospital’s innovation strategy. Photon counting is a technological revolution. The heightened image precision allows us to significantly improve diagnosis for many diseases, with the additional benefit of reducing radiation doses by 30% and contrast agents by 25%!
This technology paves the way for spectral imaging, which enables better analysis of the various organ tissues. Until now, only leading public medical centers in France such as Institut Gustave Roussy, Hôpital Européen Georges Pompidou and Hôpital Necker-Enfants malades were equipped with this type of scanner. By becoming the first private medical institution in France to acquire this revolutionary device, the American Hospital of Paris is pursuing its innovation strategy, aimed at achieving maximal benefits for patients.”
For more than a century, the American Hospital of Paris has been expanding, modernizing and innovating for its patients, thanks to its benefactors’ unwavering support.

You are subject to the French wealth tax on real estate assets (IFI) if the net value of your real estate assets exceeds €1,300,000. The value of the assets being reported is their estimated value on January 1st of the tax year in question. Your primary residence always benefits from a 30% allowance. The assets taken into account in the IFI tax base are those owned by all members of the tax household combined.

If you want to reduce your IFI tax to a minimum, simply calculate as follows: IFI/0.75 = your donation amount. Use our calculator to determine how much IFI tax credit you can receive for your donation.
To qualify for a 2026 IFI tax credit, your donation must be made before your tax filing deadline. The date varies depending on the French department you live in and whether you file by paper or online.
You can make your donation by:
If you encounter any difficulties, please contact our Major Gifts department at + 33 1 46 41 27 97.
You must mention your donation in the section “Réduction d’impôt pour des organismes d’intérêt général établis en France” (tax credit for charitable donations in France) in Box 9 of Form 2042-IFI (supplementary income declaration). Also be sure to store the tax receipt we send you in a safe place, in case you are asked to present it to the tax authorities.
You cannot receive the maximum tax credit against your IFI wealth tax and your income tax simultaneously, but you may choose to split your donation amount between the two taxes.
For example, if you donate €15,000, you may divide this amount between your IFI wealth tax and your income tax as follows:
→ IFI wealth tax: €10,000 for a €7,500 tax credit (€10,000 X 75%)
→ Income tax: €5,000 for a €3,300 tax credit (€5,000 X 66%)
Your tax credits total €10,800, meaning your donation actually costs you only €4,200.
If you quality for a tax credit that goes over the maximum credit allowed or exceeds the amount of IFI tax you owe, you cannot carry over the surplus to reduce your IFI in the following years. However, you may report part of your donation (up to €66,667) for an IFI tax credit and the remainder of your donation can be reported for an income tax credit, with a maximum credit of 20% of your taxable income.
