The Manitoba government will spend $120 million over the next four years for new diagnostic equipment, including MRIs and CT scanners, across the province.

At an announcement at the Grace General Hospital Monday, Health Minister Theresa Oswald said in some cases the new equipment will replace existing less efficient models.

Included among the new equipment are new MRI machines at the Grace and in hospitals in Selkirk and Dauphin. There are currently eight MRI machines in Manitoba.

St. Boniface Hospital will receive a new cardiac CT scanner, while the Grace and Selkirk hospitals will receive replacement scanners.
