National Cancer Center, GE fight breast cancer
General Electric Healthcare Co, a leader in the high-end medical devices market, said it will partner with China's national cancer center and work on the research and treatment of breast cancer.
The two sides will cooperate on setting standards and guidelines for the early diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer. They will also cooperate in other areas, including the clinical application of innovative technologies, the training of doctors, volunteer treatments, and public education.
In the next five years, GE Healthcare plans to cooperate with the Chinese government, medical agencies, enterprises and public welfare organizations to promote safe and effective methods to screen breast cancer and raise the early detection rate and five-year survival rate, the company said.
