Acquire a new photon-counting CT scanner

75% credit against your IFI wealth tax.

100% in support of diagnostic accuracy.

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.

Project aims: 

  • Offer a more powerful and reliable solution to our prescribing radiologists, clinicians and surgeons, as well as to our radiologic technologists;
  • Reduce exposure to X-rays as well as the doses of contrast agents;
  • Reinforce the American Hospital of Paris’s position of leadership in medical imaging.

  • Provisional calendar:
  • Q2 2027: Technical studies, approval of plans, adaptation of an existing room, logistical coordination.
  • Q3 2027: Room upgrades for compliance purposes.
  • Q4 2027: Delivery and installation of the machine ahead of full operational use.
Overall budget:
2,565,000
(includes scanner acquisition, installation and room adaptation).

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I am subject to the IFI wealth tax on real estate assets?

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.

How do I calculate my IFI tax credit?

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.

When do I have to make my donation to receive my IFI tax credit?

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.

How do I make a donation?

You can make your donation by:

  • Bank card via our website – it's easy and secure.
  • Check made out to the American Hospital of Paris: download the donation form here and return it to:
    American Hospital of Paris

    63, boulevard Victor Hugo
    B.P. 109 92202 Neuilly-sur-Seine Cedex
  • By wire using the following IBAN FR76 30003 03877 00250714240 27 Please indicate your first and last names.

If you encounter any difficulties, please contact our Major Gifts department at + 33 1 46 41 27 97.

How do I report the tax credit I received after making my donation?

You must mention your donation in the section Réduction dimpôt pour des organismes dintérêt 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.

Can I combine an IFI credit and an income tax credit?

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 I qualify for a tax credit that exceeds the IFI tax I owe or exceeds the maximum credit allowed, can I carry over the surplus?

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.
