21 public health facilities in Hanoi have CT and MRI machines.

On May 7th, the Director of the Hanoi Department of Health, Nguyen Trong Dien, signed a notice announcing the list of 21 units equipped with CT scanners and MRI machines, making it easier for people to access advanced diagnostic imaging techniques right at the public health level.

According to the published list, 21 units under the Hanoi Department of Health are currently equipped with modern diagnostic imaging systems, including: Bac Thang Long Hospital, Hanoi Oncology Hospital, Soc Son General Hospital, Duc Giang General Hospital, Thanh Nhan Hospital, Saint Paul Hospital, Ba Vi Hospital, Hanoi Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Hanoi Heart Hospital, and Dong Anh General Hospital.

Next are Hanoi Psychiatric Hospital, Ha Dong General Hospital, Phuc Tho Hospital, Van Dinh Hospital, Son Tay Hospital, Hoe Nhai Hospital, Thach That Hospital, Thuong Tin Hospital, Quoc Oai Hospital, Hanoi Traditional Medicine Hospital and Hanoi Forensic Center.

According to the Hanoi Department of Health, the CT scanner and MRI systems at these facilities have many modern configurations, meeting the needs for in-depth diagnosis. These include many 1.5 Tesla and 3.0 Tesla MRI systems, 4D simulation CT machines, and CT scanners with capacities ranging from 64 slices to 384 slices and 512 slices per rotation.

Public disclosure of information is considered a step towards increasing transparency in public healthcare operations, while also helping people easily access official information before choosing where to seek medical examination and treatment.

People can also proactively choose medical facilities that suit their place of residence and medical condition, thereby optimizing their benefits from health insurance, especially in cases requiring high-tech diagnostic imaging.

The Hanoi Department of Health requests that its affiliated units continue to effectively utilize existing equipment, enhance the application of science and technology, and improve professional quality to better meet the healthcare needs of the people of Hanoi.

Expanding and making modern equipment systems publicly available in public hospitals also helps to reduce the burden on central-level hospitals, making it easier for people to access high-tech services right in their local areas.
