It was donated by the Sassari Nord Rotary club which delivered it to the structure directed by Professor Alessandro Fancellu, in the presence of the regional health councilor Carlo Doria.

An occasion that highlighted the great participation of the territory and of the citizens themselves who contributed to raising funds for the donation . «I want to thank the Rotary Club Sassari Nord and all the people who, with this gesture of solidarity, made the purchase of the ultrasound machine possible», said the health director of the Aou of Sassari, Lucia Anna Mameli . «A precious and very useful gift in the activity of our healthcare workers, in support of fragile and complex patients like those of the Breast unit». The donation is «the result of a fundraising campaign», explained the president of the Sassari Nord Rotary club, Evelyn Pittalis , «which involved private companies, associations, artists and over a thousand anonymous donors who contributed with great enthusiasm and they were indispensable for achieving the result."

The project is linked to the "Innamorata di vita" initiative which deals with and worries about women both from the point of view of breast cancer prevention and from the point of view of support and which aims to create in healthcare facilities a "dignity room" in which wigs can be made available free of charge for patients undergoing therapy. «I thank the structure that hosts us and all those who allowed this donation», said the Governor of District 2080 of Rotary International Maria Carla Ciccioriccio, «which reflects the spirit that Rotary has of being able to make, in its own small way, a contribution which is significant for us and, as a woman, fills me with pride."
