Cancer Care Improves in Western Cuba |
|
|
Monday, October 17, 2016
Havana.- Health services in Pinar del Rio, the westernmost of the Cuban provinces, improve care for oncology patients through the resuscitation equipment.
The process included the change of the radiation capsules two years ago, considering that every five years the device loses at least half of its intensity.
In addition, they proceeded to the replacement of many outdated and shabby pieces, which can raise the quality of services to more than 900 patients treated annually.
According to experts, the acquisition of a superficial radiotherapy apparatus of 100 kilovolts allows assisting patients suffering from skin cancer and some benign conditions.
Usually, about 70 percent of cancer patients require radiation therapy as part of treatment with curative or palliative functions.
