India to get mobile breast cancer detection unit

India will soon have its first most advanced mobile breast cancer detection unit, thanks to London-based NRI Paul Chawla and his friends British first lady Cherie Blair, Sarah Kennedy (wife of Liberal Democratic chief Charles Kennedy), British MPs Simon Hughes and John Prescott and former minister Baroness Amos. The first such unit, designed by renowned radiologist Col C S Pant and to be run by Chawla's NGO Roko Cancer Appeal, will be launched on December 18 in Amritsar. Over the next three months, the organisation plans to launch similar detection units in several Indian states. More: http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/rssfeeds/-2128936835.cms
