Local Projects 2012
Cobalt is a medical charity helping people with cancer and
other life-limiting conditions across the Three Counties.
Our Cheltenham Imaging Centre provides specialist diagnosis
and treatment planning not usually available in local hospitals.
Our mobile MRI units travel throughout the region and beyond,
taking the very best imaging technology to people in their own
area. We offer free training and education courses to
doctors, health-care professionals and the public, ensuring our
experience, research and cancer prevention work is widely
shared.
