City's cancer centre to get major radiotherapy upgrade
Lancashire Evening Post
|June 19, 2025
A state-of-the-art radiotherapy machine to improve cancer care across the region is soon to be unveiled at Preston's Rosemere Cancer Centre.
Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is one of just three in the North West - alongside The Christie NHS Foundation Trust and The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre NHS Foundation Trust - to benefit from a share of a £70 million government investment to modernise cancer treatment through the Plan for Change.
The new linear accelerator (LINAC) machine will be installed at Royal Preston Hospital later this year.
By replacing ageing equipment, the new LINACs will also reduce the number of cancelled appointments due to breakdowns, preventing as many as 13,000 appointments from being lost across the NHS.
