On July 30th, information from Nghe An Oncology Hospital revealed that, according to Decision No. 2223, the Ministry of Health has assigned Nghe An Oncology Hospital the task of being the specialized hospital at the final level in the North Central region.
Accordingly, Nghe An Oncology Hospital is responsible for training, transferring, coordinating, and providing technical expertise to medical facilities in the region and performing tasks as assigned and directed by the Ministry of Health.
Currently, on average, Nghe An Oncology Hospital receives and treats about 1,000 patients from Nghe An and neighboring provinces each day.
In addition to a well-trained team of doctors and nurses, the hospital has continuously invested in the most modern equipment in the North Central region such as: SPECT/CT system, 3D mammography, immunohistochemistry system, 64-128 slice CT scanner, 1.5 Tesla MRI system, Maxio robot, endoscopic ultrasound system, fully automated testing system...
The hospital has successfully implemented advanced and specialized techniques that were previously only possible at central hospitals, such as: Lung biopsy under the guidance of the Maxio robot, advanced interventional radiology techniques like: Ablation of liver and lung tumors using radiofrequency waves (RFA), immunohistochemistry staining, and tumor gene sequencing, thereby effectively applying targeted therapy and immunotherapy in cancer treatment.
Especially, with two modern radiotherapy systems including the Precise and Synergy Platform systems, the hospital has implemented many high-tech radiotherapy techniques, notably the intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) technique, which helps achieve maximum treatment effectiveness at the tumor site while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy organs. This has completed the multimodal treatment regimen in cancer.
The hospital is urgently completing the Nghe An Oncology Hospital project (phase 2) with a total construction floor area of 75,000m2 and a main building with a scale of 1,400 beds, with a total investment of 1,259 billion VND.
Alongside construction efforts, the hospital continues to develop high-quality human resources and invest in many other modern new equipment such as: Cyclotron radioactive isotope production system, Pet-Ct system, next-generation gene sequencing system (NGS), vascular intervention system, etc., to improve the quality of examination and treatment.
