Established on Jan 1st, 1993, the department was first attached to the hospital. The Research Centre took over it's management in November 1994. In the past several years, it mainly served as a specialist clinic. We plan to carry out clinical research as well as provide medical treatment in the future. In view of the fact that the location, climate and life styles are different between China and Singapore, the department plans to draw up a set of guidelines fot the treatment of tumors by incorporating the treatment adopted in China with the clinical experiences of the senior physician in the hospital, namely, Chan Meng.
