The benchmarking visit was attended by key administrators of DLSMHSI, including Assistant Professor Dan Clarence A. Diaz, Dean of the College of Medical Imaging and Therapy (CMIT); Dr. Cheyen E. Molon, Director for Academic Partnerships and External Relations; and Assistant Professor Alfred Benedict A. Bayan, Program Director of the Department of Nuclear Medicine Technology. They were warmly received by the administrators of Saint Louis University, namely Dr. Ann P. Opina, Dean of the School of Nursing, Allied Health and Biological Sciences; Dr. Allan Jay Espiritu, Associate Dean of the same school; and Professor Dionisio Noel Valbuena, Head of the Radiologic Technology Department. This initiative forms part of the College’s broader strategy to continuously enhance the quality of its academic programs, particularly the Bachelor of Science in Radiologic Technology. The benchmarking activity aimed to provide a platform for the meaningful exchange of knowledge and best practices between institutions. Specifically, the visit focused on gaining insights into SLU’s approaches in curriculum design, teaching and learning strategies, assessment methodologies, and licensure examination preparation. In addition to learning from SLU’s established practices, the benchmarking activity also provided an opportunity for the College to present its Bachelor of Science in Nuclear Medicine Technology program. During the discussion, the CMIT administrators shared key aspects of the program, including its structure, goals, and anticipated impact, and explored potential areas for collaboration should SLU express interest in offering a similar program in the future. Overall, the benchmarking activity at St. Louis University proved to be a valuable endeavor in reinforcing academic excellence, strengthening institutional linkages, and promoting innovation, particularly in the field of medical imaging and therapy. More importantly, these efforts contribute to the continuous advancement of healthcare education in the country, supporting the development of highly competent and globally competitive professionals who can respond to national and international healthcare needs.

During the program held at the De La Salle-Villarosa Function Room, Dr. Tony Ramos, President of De La Salle Medical and Health Sciences Institute (DLSMHSI), and Mr. Nanjo Berba, Chancellor and Chief Administrative Officer, highlighted the importance of collaboration within the Lasallian community. Both leaders emphasized that the establishment of these facilities reflects the Institution’s shared vision of advancing healthcare services through innovation, compassion, and collective effort. The Digital Mammography Unit enhances DLSUMC’s diagnostic capabilities by providing advanced breast imaging technology to support early detection of breast cancer. Meanwhile, the DLSUMC Oncology Care Center expands the hospital’s cancer care services by providing a much bigger dedicated space for patients undergoing treatment and consultation. The Center officially began operations at its new location on the Ground Floor of the Medical Arts Center on March 2, 2026. It will be open from Mondays to Saturdays, 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, ensuring accessible, compassionate service for patients and their families.
