Last Year's “Project Surgery” raised $1.1 million for exciting new medical technology in Shore Memorial's operating suites. Our new advanced anesthesia systems and patient monitors in the post anesthesia care unit are now in operation, serving thousands of patients annually.

This year's campaign will bring the most advanced imaging technology to the Shore Memorial Cancer Center. This next generation PET/CT scanner identifies even the smallest lesions using radioisotopes to identify tumors and track the treatment progress. Together with the introduction of Image Guided Radiation Therapy, funded by the RNS Cancer and Heart Fund, the PET/CT will enable respiratory gating to "follow" the changing position of tumors as patients breathe for more accurate eradication.
