New Delhi: People suffering from enlarged prostates and kidney stones will soon have access to advanced laser treatment at Safdarjung hospital in the national capital.
In a first in the country, the Centre-run hospital has bought a Holmium laser machine from Israel at a cost of Rs 1.5 crore, for removal of enlarged prostates and kidney and bladder stones through minimally invasive surgery.
The hospital will hold a two-day workshop beginning tomorrow in which procedures of laser removal of bladder tumours will be demonstrated live.
