Jamshedpur: In its quest to constantly improve patient care, Meherbai Tata Memorial Hospital (MTMH) has installed a state-of-the-art mammography machine with Tomosynthesis in its diagnostic centre.

The machine was inaugurated by Atrayee Sanyal, Vice President Human Resource Management, Tata Steel today in presence of Chanakya Chaudhary, Vice President Corporate Services, Tata Steel. The Chairman, MTMH, Dr R N Sharma was present on the occasion with Dr Sudhir Rai, General Manager, Medical Services, Dr Vinita Singh, Chief of Medical Indoor Services and Dr Mamta Rath Dutta, Chief Consultant & Head of Department- Medical Indoor Services and other senior faculty of Tata Main Hospital and MTMH.

 

Dr Sujata Mitra, Director, MTMH highlighted the advantage of this high-end machine, which will improve the accuracy of testing for suspected breast cancer. Mammography is the recommended method for breast cancer screening. With the introduction of new machine, improved accuracy will result in better disease detection.

 

The inauguration of the mammography machine is part of Breast Cancer Awareness month which concludes today. During the month various initiatives were undertaken including awareness talks and sessions on various media platforms and free screening of women journalists for breast cancer.

 

MTMH, a trust hospital at Jamshedpur was established in 1975 to cater to cancer patients of this region. It is named after Lady Meherbai Tata, wife of Sir Dorabji Jamshedji Tata. In 2017, Tata Trusts approved a project to upgrade MTMH from a 72- bedded cancer hospital to a comprehensive 128 bedded cancer care facility through investment in civil infrastructure and equipment.

 

The foundation laying ceremony for this project was done on 2nd March 2018 by Mr. Ratan Tata and the upgraded hospital was inaugurated by him on 13th March 2019. MTMH, a 128-bedded hospital now offers comprehensive cancer care facility, including Medical and Radiation Oncology, Surgical Oncology with TMH, Palliative Care and advanced diagnostic facilities (CT, MRI, PET-CT). It has an NABL accredited laboratory. Image guided biopsies, not done anywhere else in Jamshedpur, are routinely carried out at MTMH. The infrastructure includes a Day Care chemotherapy ward, Pritpal Palliative Care Centre (funded by Suri Foundation) and well- equipped general wards and cabins.

In addition, a state- of-the- art True Beam radiotherapy machine, the only one of its kind in Jharkhand helps to treat patients with the most advanced and precise radiation therapy.

 

MTMH accepts patients under the PM-JAY (Ayushman Bharat) scheme. Many patients are also supported through Mukhyamantri Gambhir Bimari Yojana. Besides these, corporates and individuals support poor patients through generous donations (KMCO Trust, Suri Seva Foundation, Jamshedpur Continuous Annealing & Processing Company Private Limited, Tinplate to name a few). The endeavour of MTMH is to ensure that no cancer patient suffers due to lack of fund and it is able to do so because of the immense support from Jamshedpur society.
