Medical services in Region Six are set to receive a boost as plans are underway to install a new computerised tomography (CT) scan machine and a mammography machine at the New Amsterdam Hospital.
The announcement was made by Minister of Health, Dr Frank Anthony, during his remarks at the New Amsterdam School of Nursing graduation ceremony on Monday, a Ministry of Health release stated.
Dr Anthony noted that access to CT scans has been a challenge as he emphasised the importance of bridging this gap ahead of the construction of the new US$161 million state-of-the-art hospital in the region.
