A department of oncology and nuclear medicine, named for a Los Angeles benefactor, Leon Friedman, was dedicated last week at the Rambam Hospital here. The $145,000, 42-room department provides diagnosis, therapy and research into malignant tumors and related illnesses. Dr. Eliezer Robinson, a 38-year-old graduate of the Hebrew University-Hadassah Medical School directs the department for which Mr. Friedman, who died in 1961, bequeathed $50,000 as a starting fund.
