At the launching ceremony, Can Tho Central General Hospital and Fujifilm Vietnam Co., Ltd. also signed a memorandum of understanding on cooperation in training in gastrointestinal endoscopy. At the same time, Can Tho Central General Hospital also received 1 ultrasound endoscopy processing system (originated from Japan) and 12 multi-function endoscopy beds, with a total sponsorship value of about 3 billion VND.
The Endoscopy Department of Can Tho Central General Hospital has deployed most of the specialized endoscopic techniques, performing 150 - 170 multidisciplinary endoscopies every day.
