Tanzania to Become Regional Cancer Treatment Hub With New Advanced Facility: Media

The Centre of Excellence for Cancer Training and Treatment, currently in the final stages of construction at Benjamin Mkapa Hospital in Dodoma, reflects "big plans for the future," International Atomic Energy Agency regional director Gashaw Wolde stated.

"The facility has been designed to meet international standards and will provide state-of-the-art radiotherapy and oncology services," the hospital's acting executive director Henry Humba noted.

The centre is scheduled to welcome its first patients in September, he added.

"Let it be a hub to receive patients from neighbouring countries. The key is to invest strongly in human resources," Gashaw Wolde emphasized.
