European specialists of hearing restoration will take part in the
International Conference of Cochlear Implantation in Armenia. The
Conference has been organized by the Medical center “Erebuni” together
with the “Cochlear” international center.

Tomorrow on June 14 the Armenian and European specialists will examine
the Armenian patients. In the medical centers of Yerevan “Erebuni”,
“Armenia”, and “Arabkir” there will be an open-door day. As Professor
Arthur Shukuryan, head of the Armenian Cochlear Implantation Center
said during today’s seminar in hotel “Armenia”, on the “open-door
day” the Armenian patients with hearing problems will be given hearing
apparatuses free of change. They have been allotted by the specialists
of the “Cochlear” international center.

By the way, the Cochlear Implantation apparatuses are given to Armenia
by the Europeans for 12 000 USD each. But Mr. Shukuryan considers this
the minimal cost as in reality the apparatus costs much more expensive.
