CENTRAL COAST CANCER SERVICES BOOSTED WITH LINEAR ACCELERATOR

The Central Coast’s cancer-fighting capability has been boosted, with a new linear accelerator unveiled at Gosford Hospital.

It’s the third machine of its kind at the local Cancer Centre and is expected to cut down wait times for radiotherapy.

The $3.8 million machine was funded by the federal government.
