Dr. Anwar Al-Hashemi, Consultant for Early Breast Cancer Detection at the hospital, stated: “Recently, we delivered an educational lecture as part of an awareness seminar on breast cancer, its prevention, and diagnostic methods.

Dr. Al-Hashemi added: “The lecture covered key aspects of breast cancer, including its causes, severity, and treatment options. We also highlighted the importance of early detection programs in diagnosis and treatment, which play a crucial role in reducing the number of cases. Additionally, we discussed the availability of advanced diagnostic and therapeutic technologies for breast cancer.”
