GBFM newsroom - Its expected a new CT Scanner at Portiuncula Hospital in Ballinasloe will become operational in the coming weeks.
The long-awaited scanner was delivered in recent days and will be installed in a newly constructed expansion of the Radiology department.
The scanner was due to be replaced a number of years ago - but it was discovered a new machine would not fit at the location due to space constraints.
Councillor Evelyn Parsons says it's a relief that there's now an end in sight - and the upgrade will support improved quality services in the hospital.
