The donation will also be put toward supporting a fellowship program focused on reducing disparities in breast and lung cancer — two of the most frequently diagnosed cancers in the state, the outlet reported. 

With the purchase of a portable radiography unit, pathologists at ChristianaCare’s cancer center will be able to process around 25 percent more cases each year using the high-quality imaging the units are equipped to provide.

At the Becker's Perioperative Summit, taking place September 14–15 in Chicago, perioperative leaders and healthcare executives will focus on improving operating room efficiency, enhancing patient safety, optimizing staffing and driving innovation across surgical services.
