Super proud of our team and what this pioneering technology is doing for lung cancer patients, increasing early intervention opportunity and making a huge difference already! #ION #Bronchoscopyteam @MFTnhs @hsbalata @chriscraig872

[Department of Health and Social Care @DHSCgovuk]

The ION system accurately, safely samples small spots in the lungs for cancer so patients can be treated as soon as possible. @MFTnhs are among the first in Europe to adopt it 🦾

Technology is central to our 10 Year Health Plan, improving patient care and saving lives.

Rishi Sunak told Beth Rigby "That's not what the Public wants." When asked about a General Election.

Like if you want a General Election
RT if you really want one.

Liar Rishi Sunak has to go.
