The second Regional Training Course (RTC) organized by International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in collaboration with the Government of Pakistan through Atomic Energy Cancer Hospital (AECH) NORI concluded here on Thursday. Nuclear Medicine, Oncology and Radiotherapy Institute (NORI), a flagship cancer-care hospital running under the aegis of Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC), hosted this training course.
In his welcome address, Dr. Mohammad Faheem, Director NORI thanked all the international delegates and local participants for making this training course successful by their active participation.
He shared with the audience that how the Lead Country Coordinator from Japan, Dr. Masaru Wakatsuki and other international delegates were much afraid of coming to Pakistan owing to propaganda about law and order situation here.
However, after their stay in Pakistan, their perception and views about Pakistan totally changed. Dr. Faheem also thanked IAEA for having trust in AECH NORI to be the host of this training course which he remarked as the most interactive, practical and successful training course, so far.
In her speech, Course Director of the RTC, Dr. Humera Mahmood, Head Oncology and Radiology NORI briefed about the contents covered during the four-day training activity and hoped that the knowledge and experience gained during the course would benefit the practitioners as well as their patients.
