I'm at the launch of the Nottingham Children’s Hospital big appeal for a new i-MRI scanner.
It's hoped to raise £2.8m for equipment that will better treat children with tumours.
Quote MessageUsing an MRI during operations, or what we surgeons call an intra-operative i-MRI, is a significant benefit as it can help us completely remove tumours whenever there is the possibility of doing this. This is why I am backing the campaign so that we achieve the best possible outcomes for our young patients.”
