All routine X-rays such as bone and chest X-rays do not require appointments and walk-in service is provided round the clock. Special X-ray procedures like Fluoroscopy exams require a scheduled appointment including, Barium swallow, Barium meal, Barium enema, Hysterosalpinogram, IVP, skeletal survey, small bowel studies, MCUG, uretherograms, fistulograms and sinograms, etc.

Radiologists can more easily diagnose diseases such as cancers, cardiovascular diseases, infectious diseases, appendicitis, trauma and skeletal disorders via Computed Tomography (CT) scanner that provides uncompromised image quality and outstanding clinical performance.

We are providing all the basic MRI scans and specialized studies which include Diffusion MRI, Fluid Attenuated Inversion Recovery (FLAIR), Magnetic resonance angiography, MRCP, MRI Liver, MRI abdomen, MRI prostate, MR spectroscopy, MRI IAMs, CSF cineflow study, MRI for brachial plexus, MRI breast, and MRI for trigeminal neuralgia and many more.

Our radiology department is providing expertise in a wide range of Ultrasound including, abdomen, pelvis, antenatal, musculoskeletal, renal, thyroid, neck, small parts including orbit and small joints. All Doppler studies include varicose veins, AV fistula and ultrasound breast are also performed.

We have state of art biplane angiography machine with advanced softwares. It is ideal for endovascular diagnosis and treatment of neurological disorders like cerebral aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations and ischemic stroke. Besides neurointervention it is also well suited for treatment of complex procedures in peripheral intervention as it has the ability to produce 3D images .It’s advanced software has the ability of functional analysis of blood vessels in keeping with most advanced development. It gives operator an edge over single plane machines in performing interventional procedures.

At Department of Radiology, services offered include: Screening Mammography, diagnostic mammography, Biopsy and needle localization. We have digital mammography machine which increases the sensitivity of mammogram in early detection of carcinoma with reduced radiation. Mammogram is usually followed by ultra-sound in cases of dense breast. We have a dedicated women-imaging unit where only female staff caters to female patients.

Nuclear Medicine is a specialized service of Department of Radiology that utilizes radioactive material to access the function of organs or systems within the body. The Nuclear Medicine Department offers diagnostic as well as therapeutic procedures. These unique images provide information that often cannot be obtained using other imaging procedures and offers the ability to identify disease in early stages.

Bone scans are being done for detection of stress fractures, tumors, metastasis, and osteomyelitis. Lung perfusion studies, renal scan including DMSA, DTPA and MAG3, Thyroid and parathyroid scan, Meckle’s and RBC scans are also being done on routine basis. Whole body scan and sentinel lymph node scans are also done for cancer staging. The Department also provides services for radio ablation therapy for thyroid diseases and a number of other studies are also being conducted including Thallium scan and H.I.D.A scan.

This service is used to diagnose or treat pathology with the most minimally invasive techniques possible. By minimizing the physical trauma to the patient, peripheral interventions can reduce infection rates and recovery time.
