Dhaka, Oct. 26 -- Radiotherapy machines will be installed at the district level hospitals within the next two years to bring cancer treatment services closer to people's doorsteps, Health and Family Welfare Minister Sardar Md Shakhawat Husain said on Monday.

"The government is working to expand cancer treatment beyond divisional cities and make the services accessible to people at the district level. The health sector is being reorganised to make it more people-oriented and meet public expectations. Work is progressing rapidly towards this goal," the minister said.
