Press releases may be edited for formatting or style | November 30, 2015

India is severely under-equipped when it comes to radiotherapy treatment machines. A country of more than one billion people is served by about 400 machines. More than two million new cancer cases are detected each year in India. The Indian government has made cancer care a key focus area and having a well-skilled radiotherapy workforce is vital to the roll out of more modern treatment equipment.
