We are talking about a modern linear accelerator Elekta Harmony, which the hospital received as part of the initiative of the Ministry of health of Ukraine to support cancer centers, with the support of the Odessa RMA. After the launch of the device, this will allow the institution to reach a new level in the treatment of cancer in patients not only from the Odessa region, but also from neighboring regions.
"We inspected the installation process of the linear accelerator, which is about to be completed. The device will soon be ready for use.
We also checked the quality of patients ' nutrition. The Regional Cancer Center pays special attention to this. Patients receive fresh, nutritious food that takes into account their individual needs and dietary requirements. This provides important support for the body during treatment.
We talked to patients and doctors. We discussed the prospects. We will continue to develop the center in the future, because this will help save lives and improve the quality of medical services in the region," says Deputy Head of the Odessa regional state administration Alexander Harlov.
