Establishing a Radiation Therapy Center
A radiotherapy centre with a cyclotron unit in Madinah serving 1,800 patients a year and sparing them the journey.
The project to install a magnetic resonance imaging scanner (MRI 3 Tesla) at King Faisal Specialist Hospital – Madinah aims to strengthen advanced diagnostic capability, particularly in neurological and brain conditions, by producing precise, high-quality images that are hard to achieve with less powerful machines.
The project also includes a structural extension to the infrastructure to house the new scanner and allow for future expansion (such as installing a biplane angiography system). It will also improve service efficiency and reduce waiting times.
The project further improves patient satisfaction and the quality of care, and supports the hospital's ambition to excel in advanced radiology services to the highest international standards.
