Gozo General Hospital Receives Long-Awaited MRI Marchine
The Gozo General Hospital has acquired a new MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) machine, Minister for Health and Active Ageing Jo Etienne Abela has revealed.
This is the first-ever MRI machine for Gozitan patients, who have had to commute to Malta to get a scan.
Gozitan PN MP Alex Borg took to social media to express his satisfaction at the fact that “the MRI machine has finally been installed in the Gozo General Hospital”, adding that he is “certain that many Gozitan patients will benefit from this”.
Back in January, the Health Minister announced plans for the installation of an MRI scanner at St. Vincent De Paul, alongside the procurement of another for Gozo General Hospital.
This decision came after it was revealed that a staggering 15,768 individuals are currently awaiting scans.
