Solving the problem of oncological diagnosis in Irkutsk: the launch of PET-CT and the completion of the radiology building. At the Irkutsk Duma meeting, delegates raised the issue of the acute shortage of cancer detection equipment. Due to the lack of a PET-CT machine and the construction of a special building that has been delayed for 15 years, Irkutsk patients are forced to travel to Ulan-Ude for tests. The deputy governor of the Irkutsk region Natalia Dikosrova reported that the problem of the initial diagnosis will be partially solved in the first half of November this year. The region received federal funding for the purchase of equipment, which is now being installed and commissioned at the Irkutsk Regional Clinical Hospital. The research will be carried out within the framework of a mandatory medical insurance policy; The necessary funds and quotas have already been allocated. A final decision was also made to complete the construction of the radiology building. According to the deputy governor, the project received support from the federal center. Currently, medical and technical specifications have been prepared and are undergoing approval and the facility itself is being transferred to the jurisdiction of the Irkutsk region from the concessionaire. Dikoserova emphasized that the launch of the device at the regional hospital will not cover all the region's needs for comprehensive radiological studies, therefore completing the construction of the building remains a priority for the authorities. We will remind you that the epic with the construction of the cancer center lasted for many years, and it became clear that postponements of the completion date are inextricably linked to widespread corruption. The security forces identified fraudulent schemes in the purchase of medical equipment for the clinic, where more than 22 million rubles were stolen. At the same time, bribes were transferred to the top of the regional health ministry for the position of head of the oncology clinic. Later, Victoria Dvornichenko became a defendant in a case of abuse of power with damages of 35 million rubles.
