The mortality rate from oncologic diseases decreased by 3.4% in the Tula region in 2024. This is reported by TSN24 with reference to information from the Ministry of Health of the region.

In total, more than 6.5 thousand cases of cancer were detected during the year. Each patient is closely monitored by doctors. Oncologists perform all types of surgical interventions.
