Imaging professionals trained on Ghana’s first paediatric cancer imaging protocol

Ghana recently validated its first-ever National Paediatric Imaging Protocol aimed at improving childhood cancer diagnosis, treatment planning and research.

Twenty-five radiographers and sonographers across Ghana have undergone hands-on training to strengthen the diagnosis and management of childhood cancers using Ghana’s first National Paediatric Imaging Protocol.

The protocol, developed by World Child Cancer in collaboration with the Ministry of Health and technical health experts, is expected to standardise imaging practices for children and address longstanding gaps in paediatric radiology services.
