Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre
Until late 2007, the Beatson was based on two principal sites in Glasgow - one at the Western Infirmary, the second at Gartnavel General Hospital - and at other sites, including Stobhill Hospital and Glasgow Royal Infirmary. It is now based on one site - the new state-of-the-art Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre at Gartnavel.
The new centre has total floor space extending to approximately 22,500 square metres, and accommodates 173 in-patient beds for oncology, haemato-oncology, bone marrow transplant and brachytherapy. There are CT and MRI imaging, CT and conventional simulators, clinical research and trials units, outpatient consulting suites and a range of support services, including Radiotherapy Physics, Pharmacy, medical records and education.
