A charity donation has paid for a state-of-the art ultrasound machine at a Liverpool hospital.
Professor Terry Jones, Consultant Head and Neck Surgeon at Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (LUHFT), said the donation from the Marina Dalglish Appeal is helping people in the region to receive diagnostic results more quickly.
It is hoped the £75,000 donation is the start of a new partnership between Liverpool Head and Neck Centre and the Marina Dalglish Appeal.
Prof Jones said: “Our new ultrasound machine is being used as part of a rapid diagnosis service at Aintree University Hospital. Time is of the essence when it comes to diagnosing and starting treatment with any cancer, so I’d like to thank Marina for this generous donation which has made a real difference to the experience of patients in our region.”
