SNFC Swimathon 2013 in support of the DOPPLER Appeal

The SNFC Swimathon in support of

The Nottinghamshire Freemasons DOPPLER appeal

-and other Local charities and good causes if funds allow-

This is very worthy scheme to assist the QMC University Hospital purchase a

Duplex Ultrasonic Scanner (DOPPLER)

which will ensure more successful operations on Liver and Pancreatic cancers.

An ultra sonic device which shows with great accuracy a three-dimensional picture of cancer nodes.

So that with minimum invasion it identifies the precise location of each cancer node enabling it's complete elimination and increasing the success rate from 60% to an incredible 96%

400 such operations are carried out at the QMC each year, with your help we can

save an extra 144 lives next year alone !

The cost of a Doppler scanner is £43,000 of which over half has already been raised..... with your help we hope to have this life-saving equipment installed in the QMC by Christmas 2013.

Thank you for your generosity x
