Health Minister Mike Murphy says the reduction of wait times in the province for patients requiring radiation therapy will improve the overall health system.
Murphy says the $5 million dollars being invested by the federal government will ensure patients in New Brunswick will have access to the treatment they need within an appropriate time frame.
He says cancer is currently the second highest cause of death in the country, and says a partnership between the provincial and federal government will allow new equipment to be purchased to help fight the disease.
