Scotland's only homeopathic hospital may be about to become the country's first dedicated centre for chronic pain, the BBC understands.
The Glasgow hospital's future has been in doubt because of the controversial nature of homeopathic medicine.
But in recent weeks, Health Secretary Alex Neil has hinted a new centre for the treatment of chronic pain could be located there.
He has also said he is "determined" to keep the Homeopathic Hospital open.
In November, he told an audience of about 200 people at NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde's annual review he wanted to "develop its services".
He repeated these comments to staff on a recent visit to the Homeopathic Hospital.
