Nasser Clinic in Tunisia took 21 years from the time they submitted their request in 2005 to purchase the device, with approval finally granted in 2026. This is despite the device’s importance in early tumor detection and improving diagnostic accuracy. The article shows that the technological development of this equipment has been accessible and available to several modern centers for the past two decades. However, administrative and financial procedures have caused a significant delay in utilizing it, raising questions about the responsiveness of the healthcare system in meeting advanced diagnostic needs and the impact of this delay on patients' lives.
