The Queen Elizabeth Hospital Kingâs Lynn (QEH) has received the generous donation of a transperineal medical couch, worth £13,720, from the Norfolk and Waveney Prostate Cancer Support Group.
The couch will be central to the recently-launched precision-point transperineal service at QEH which allows prostate biopsies to be taken using local rather than general anaesthetic.
The innovative new urology service will transform the standard of care for patients by enabling safer and more effective biopsies, increasing capacity and reducing waiting times.
