Radiology is a medical specialty that focuses on the use of imaging technology to diagnose and treat diseases and injuries. Radiologists are specialized physicians who interpret medical images and provide diagnostic reports to guide patient care. They play a crucial role in healthcare by utilizing various imaging modalities to visualize internal structures of the body and aid in the diagnosis and management of medical conditions.

Radiology encompasses a wide range of imaging techniques, including X-rays, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasound, and nuclear medicine scans....Read More

Radiologists work in collaboration with other healthcare professionals, such as primary care physicians, surgeons, and oncologists, to interpret images and provide essential diagnostic information. They play a vital role in cancer diagnosis and staging, identifying fractures and trauma, detecting infections, evaluating organ function, and monitoring the effectiveness of treatments.

In addition to diagnostic radiology, interventional radiology is a subspecialty within radiology that involves performing minimally invasive procedures using image guidance. Interventional radiologists can perform procedures such as angioplasty, embolization, and image-guided biopsies, reducing the need for traditional surgery and providing patients with less invasive treatment options.

Advances in technology have revolutionized radiology, enabling high-resolution imaging, three-dimensional reconstructions, and real-time imaging during procedures. Digital imaging allows radiologists to store, retrieve, and share images electronically, enhancing collaboration and providing seamless access to patient information.

Our Radiology Department is equipped with cutting-edge technology and staffed by a team of highly skilled and experienced radiologists and technicians. Here are some of the services we offer:

X-ray: Our X-ray imaging services provide detailed images of bones, organs, and tissues to aid in the diagnosis of fractures, infections, and other conditions.
CT Scan: Our advanced CT scanning technology enables detailed cross-sectional imaging of the body, assisting in the detection and characterization of various diseases and injuries.
Sonography: Also known as ultrasound, sonography utilizes sound waves to create images of organs, blood vessels, and soft tissues. It is a safe and non-invasive technique that helps in the diagnosis of conditions affecting different body systems.
Colour Doppler: Our colour Doppler imaging technique uses ultrasound to visualize and assess blood flow in organs and vessels, aiding in the diagnosis of vascular conditions and monitoring the effectiveness of treatments.
Carotid Doppler: Carotid Doppler is a specialized ultrasound examination that evaluates the blood flow in the carotid arteries, assisting in the detection of plaque build-up and risk of stroke.
2D Echo: Our 2D echocardiography service provides detailed images of the heart's structure and function, helping in the diagnosis and management of various heart conditions.
Stress Test: We offer stress testing to evaluate the heart's performance during physical exertion, aiding in the diagnosis of heart disease and assessing overall cardiovascular health.
Holter Monitoring: Holter monitoring involves wearing a portable device that records the heart's electrical activity over a period, enabling the detection of irregular heart rhythms and other cardiac abnormalities.
PFT (Pulmonary Function Test): Our PFT service assesses lung function, helping in the diagnosis and management of respiratory conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Dobutamine Stress Test : This specialized test evaluates heart function and blood flow during induced stress, assisting in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease and determining appropriate treatment strategies.
IVP (Intravenous Pyelogram) Studies: Our IVP studies involve the use of contrast dye and X-ray imaging to visualize the urinary tract, aiding in the diagnosis of conditions such as kidney stones and urinary tract obstructions.
