During their five-day visit, the Cuban doctors will study treatment activities in Military Hospital 175, exchange experience on applying advanced technologies in treating cancer with their Vietnamese colleagues, and directly diagnose and treat cancer patients in Military Hospital 175.

Through these programs, the Cuban medical personnel hopes to help Military Hospital 175’s Centre for cancer and nuclear medicine become one of the leading medical facilities in studying and treating cancer in Southern Vietnam.
