Belarus considers re-equipping cancer centers jointly with Russia's Rosatom
Belarus is studying the possibility of re-equipping its cancer facilities jointly with the Russian state nuclear industry corporation Rosatom, Deputy Chair of the State Committee on Science and Technology of Belarus Tatiana Stolyarova said at the Belarusian energy and environmental forum Energy Expo in Minsk on 17 October, BelTA has learned.
“A number of promising areas of cooperation with Rosatom based on the principle of cooperation chains are under discussion. For example, we are considering the re-equipment of Belarusian cancer centers with ‘heavy' class equipment (brachytherapy equipment and linear accelerators) and the construction in our country of a positron emission tomography (PET) center that will use a cyclotron. In turn, Belarusian specialists can help develop treatment protocols for nuclear medicine equipment produced by Rosatom,” said Tatiana Stolyarova.
