A nuclear medicine department and a modern diagnostic centre will be set up at Jinnah hospital on public-private partnership mode where radiological and pathological lab test facilities including cancer diagnoses will be available to the patients. Secretary Specialised Healthcare and Medical Education Punjab Najam Ahmed Shah said that other hospitals would also get benefit from this diagnostic centre.
In the centre, Gamma Camera would also be installed. The patients would get this facility free of cost. An MRI machine would also be made part of this public and private partnership joint venture. Najam Ahmed Shah directed the consultants to prepare a feasibility report and TORs of the projects within a week and submit report in the next meeting so that working could be started on both the projects without any further delay.
