The Vietnam Atomic Energy Institute has recently collaborated with the Central Military Hospital 108 and Cho Ray Hospital to develop the PET-Cyclotron project, aiming to introduce a new technology for disease diagnosis, particularly for early cancer detection, into Vietnam.
As a result, a national center for nuclear medicine and radiation therapy will be established at Hospital 108. This information was shared by Director Vuong Huu Tan this morning during the 30th anniversary celebration of the Vietnam Atomic Energy Institute.
With the institute’s contributions over the past three decades, 20 nuclear medicine facilities have been established across the country to meet the healthcare needs of the population. Several new technologies, such as brachytherapy, sterilization of medical instruments, and the production of burn treatment films using radiation techniques, have also been researched and transferred to the healthcare sector by the institute.
