There is a certain risk of complications involved with cardiac catherisation. Using a CT scanner, on the other hand, carries virtually no risk.\u2019<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;]<div class=\"infobox light-brown\"><p>The donation in brief:<\/p>\n<p>Year: 2011-2012<\/p>\n<p>Donation: 12\u00a0MNOK<br \/>\nRecipient:\u00a0University of Bergen<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/helse-bergen.no\/om-oss\/gaver-og-donasjonar\/gaver-fra-trond-mohn\/ny-ct-maskin-pa-hjarteavdelinga\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more<\/a><\/p><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<div class=\"spacer-3ed3c4f3188960fecee6faed144db8791289\" style=\"\"><\/div><style>@media (min-width: 320px) { .spacer-3ed3c4f3188960fecee6faed144db8791289{ height: 30px;}}@media (min-width: 767px) { .spacer-3ed3c4f3188960fecee6faed144db8791289{ height: 30px;}}@media (min-width: 979px) { .spacer-3ed3c4f3188960fecee6faed144db8791289{ height: 60px;}}@media (min-width: 1200px) { .spacer-3ed3c4f3188960fecee6faed144db8791289{ height: 60px;}}<\/style>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1652740766878{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;background-image: url(https:\/\/mohnfoundation.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/bergensbilde1100x450.jpg?id=5084) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row el_class=&#8221;article-white&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1649538946065{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_row_inner css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1650537879673{margin-bottom: -30px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_inner][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text] In 2011, the Foundation awarded the University of Bergen NOK 12 [&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn btn-secondary vidiflex-read-more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/mohnfoundation.no\/en\/infrastructure\/cardiac-ct-scanner-to-the-university-of-bergen\/\">Read More&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":8288,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-8412","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-21 18:48:35","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"translation_priority","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mohnfoundation.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8412","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mohnfoundation.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mohnfoundation.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mohnfoundation.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mohnfoundation.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8412"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/mohnfoundation.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8412\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8414,"href":"https:\/\/mohnfoundation.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8412\/revisions\/8414"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mohnfoundation.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8288"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mohnfoundation.no\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8412"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
