Ghana’s President, John Dramani Mahama, has commissioned a state-of-the-art PET Scan facility at the Swedish Ghana Medical Centre in Accra, describing it as a major milestone in Ghana’s journey towards world-class healthcare delivery and medical sovereignty.
According to Mahama, the advanced diagnostic centre will strengthen early cancer detection, improve treatment outcomes and reduce the need for Ghanaians to travel abroad for specialist medical care.
He added that the facility positions Ghana as a future medical hub for the West African sub-region.
The President also announced major interventions in healthcare, education and housing, including new regional hospitals, additional CAT labs, teacher housing projects and the $300 million STARR-J initiative aimed at ending the double-track system by 2027.
He commended GNAT and the management of the Swedish Ghana Medical Centre for their visionary investment, stressing that quality healthcare, teacher welfare and education remain central to Ghana’s national development agenda.
