CUH in fundraising drive for new cancer tech

A major drive is underway by the Cork University Hospital (CUH) Charity to fund cancer testing equipment described as potentially life-changing for patients, while reducing the need for older, gruelling forms of chemotherapy.
By raising a further €275,000, the charity can purchase the so-called Ion Torrent Genexus Integrated Sequencer technology, that will enable consultants to accurately test multiple cancer genes in a single specimen.
