Cancer Care Kenya gains a valuable tool

Cancer Care Kenya staff members Tamara Scheenstra and Krishna Mahan use the ProSoma software.

Oncology Systems Limited has completed the first installation of ProSoma virtual simulation software in Africa at Cancer Care Kenya, based at the M P Shah Hospital in Nairobi.  The installation coincided with the first anniversary of the centre.

Equipped with linear accelerators offering MLC conformal therapy, CT planning and a 3D conformal planning suite, Cancer Care Kenya is said to be the first oncology centre in East and Central Africa offering first class radiotherapy services for the treatment of cancer.
