PANO - The Military Medical Department under the Vietnam People’s Army in cooperation with Central Military Hospital 108 has held a science conference on laser application in medicine for many hospitals nationwide, including other military ones.
Over the past years, public health service and Army medical corps have effectively applied laser technology in treatment, diagnosis and surgery to yield good results in various cases.
With assistance from the Laser Technology Centre, Central Military Hospital 108 put lasers in use for the first time in Vietnam in the 1980s.
At present, some departments in the hospital such as ophthalmology, otorhinolaryngology, dermatology and venereology are equipped with modern laser equipment to improve the quality of treatment.
