The Southeast Regional Radiation Medical Center (Director Lee Changhun) and Samsung Changwon Hospital (Director Oh Joohyun) signed a partnership agreement at the medical center's conference room on October 13.


Through this agreement, the two institutions will closely cooperate in various areas, including providing convenience for referred patients, exchanging medical information, conducting joint research in both clinical and basic fields, offering academic support, and participating in various academic conferences and educational programs.


Oh Joohyun, Director of Samsung Changwon Hospital, stated, "This agreement is significant as it establishes a close medical cooperation system between a leading general hospital and a national public hospital representing Changwon and Busan, working together for the benefit of local residents. We hope to elevate the standard of medical services in the southeastern region and jointly respond to essential medical needs."


Lee Changhun, Director of the Southeast Regional Radiation Medical Center, said, "There are many areas where we can cooperate. We will receive much support from teams such as the liver transplant team at Samsung Changwon Hospital, and we will also be able to provide assistance through our center's radiation therapy and diagnostics and treatment using radioisotopes. As hospitals representing the southeastern region, we will actively collaborate to lead the future of precision medicine and radiation medical science."



With this agreement, research and personnel exchanges at the Southeast Radiation Medicine and Science Complex, which is currently nearing completion, are expected to become even more active. The complex will house core facilities for radiation medicine, including the Heavy Ion Therapy Center of Seoul National University Hospital, the new research reactor for export and the Isotope Utilization Research Center of the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute, and related companies are also moving in one after another.
