Overview
Mercurius Health is a Portuguese healthcare brand specialising in radiotherapy, nuclear medicine and diagnostic imaging. It operates clinical centres in Portugal, with its corporate base in Lisbon, and serves patients and referring physicians across the Iberian Peninsula. The brand is known for advanced oncology treatment — including high-precision radiotherapy and radiosurgery — delivered by multidisciplinary teams of physicians, medical physicists, technicians and specialised nursing staff. Mercurius Health is no longer an independent operator. According to the Alliance Medical Iberia website, Mercurius Health, together with Cadpet, IRCA and IMD, now forms part of Alliance Medical, the Iberian arm of Alliance Medical Group. Within that network, Mercurius Health contributes radiotherapy and precision-oncology capability alongside diagnostic imaging and nuclear medicine services offered across Portugal and Spain. Alliance Medical Iberia describes itself as an Iberian network of reference centres for diagnostic imaging, nuclear medicine and oncological treatment, with operational headquarters in Madrid and Lisbon. The group states that it has been building its Iberian network since 2006 and now counts more than 20 years of presence in Iberia, over 10 operating centres and more than 120 professionals. Its stated model combines patient-centred care, continuous investment in clinically validated technology — with equipment refreshed every four to five years — senior medical staff with international experience, accredited medical physicists and specialised nursing, plus active participation in clinical trials. For patients, Mercurius Health functions as a clinical service brand: it provides radiotherapy for oncological diseases and certain benign conditions, radiosurgery for high-precision tumour treatment, and related diagnostic and nuclear-medicine procedures. Services are accessed through medical referral or direct appointment requests, and the network includes centres such as the Centro Clínico Lisboa SAMS and Hospital Viamed in Tarragona. The brand's positioning is that of a technology-driven, human-centred provider integrated into one of Europe's larger medical-imaging and oncology groups.
History
Mercurius Health is a Portuguese healthcare provider based in Lisbon that built its reputation in radiotherapy, nuclear medicine and diagnostic imaging. It developed clinical capacity in Portugal, offering high-precision radiotherapy and radiosurgery for oncological diseases and certain benign conditions, supported by multidisciplinary teams of physicians, medical physicists, technicians and specialised nurses. The decisive turning point in the brand's recent history was its integration into Alliance Medical. The Alliance Medical Iberia website states that "Cadpet, Mercurius Health, IRCA y IMD ahora forman parte de Alliance Medical" — Cadpet, Mercurius Health, IRCA and IMD are now part of Alliance Medical. This consolidation brought Mercurius Health into an Iberian network that operates reference centres in both Portugal and Spain. Alliance Medical Iberia describes itself as an Iberian network specialising in diagnostic imaging, nuclear medicine and oncological treatment, integrated by reference centres in Portugal and Spain. As part of Alliance Medical Group, it combines clinical excellence, advanced technology and highly specialised multidisciplinary teams. The group states that since 2006 it has built a network of centres where technological innovation is balanced with human and empathetic care. It reports more than 20 years of presence in Iberia, more than 10 operating centres and more than 120 professionals, with operational headquarters in Madrid and Lisbon providing a homogeneous clinical experience across the Iberian Peninsula — the same protocols, the same technology and the same care. Within this structure, Mercurius Health operates as a clinical service brand rather than a standalone company. Its services are accessed through medical referral or appointment requests, and the network includes centres such as the Centro Clínico Lisboa SAMS and Hospital Viamed in Tarragona. The group's stated commitments include patient-centred care with adapted protocols and timing, continuous investment in clinically validated equipment refreshed every four to five years, senior medical staff with international experience, accredited medical physicists, specialised nursing, and active participation in clinical trials with published results. The brand's history therefore reflects a broader trend in Iberian healthcare: the consolidation of specialised radiotherapy and diagnostic-imaging providers into larger European groups capable of sharing protocols, technology investment and clinical governance across borders.
