Mobile X-ray system for Children's Hospital in Lviv

A new mobile X-ray machine has appeared at St. Nicholas Children's Hospital, which will change the quality of diagnostics for young patients!

Every day, doctors at the St. Nicholas Children's Hospital save the lives of hundreds of young patients. Every month, they perform at least 300 X-ray examinations, most of which are urgent diagnostics for children in critical condition. However, the hospital's old equipment often becomes a serious obstacle to quality medical care.

It is especially difficult to examine patients in the intensive care units (there are four of them in the hospital!) and children from the orthopaedic and trauma department. Moving seriously ill children who are on ventilators or have just undergone surgery is a life-threatening experience.

Previously, due to technical limitations, performing examinations was difficult and often risky for toddlers. Now, doctors can quickly and safely diagnose young patients right in the wards, without the need for transportation.

The new mobile X-ray system is not just a necessity, it is a chance for each child to be saved.

‘It is extremely important for us to support initiatives that change the lives of Ukrainians for the better. Children are the future of our country, and we cannot stand aside when it comes to their health and lives. Our team is confident that this device will help save thousands of little lives,’ said Oleg Krot, President of the Techiia Foundation.

We believe that combining common resources, professionalism of doctors, and everyone's concern brings us closer to ensuring that every child receives quality medical care when they need it most.

"For our patients, this device is a real lifesaver. It allows us to quickly obtain a high-quality image, even if the child is in serious condition. This means that doctors can make important decisions faster, and children receive treatment without delay. Thanks to the new equipment, we will be able to save even more lives," said Nora Kaminska, a pediatric radiologist at St. Nicholas Children's Hospital.

This project was implemented through a collaboration between the dobro.ua charity platform, St. Nicholas Children's Hospital, and the Techiia Foundation. This synergy allows us to implement a vital project that helps save the most valuable thing - children's lives.
