What is
Radiology?

With state-of-the-art equipment and facilities, our Radiology department provides clinical services in diagnostic radiology, interventional radiology, ultrasound, and cross-sectional imaging (CT and MRI).

Why Choose Us?

MRI

What is
Magnetic Resonance Imaging?

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a painless and secure diagnostic technique that uses radio waves and a huge magnet to study the organs and structures of the human body. It works best for scanning the brain and spinal cord as well. Additionally, it is utilized to scan the bones, blood vessels, chest, and belly. It assists your physician in producing crisp images of the majority of the body, which provide more details than other tests like X-rays. It is frequently used to provide fine-grained images of the brain and spinal cord in order to identify anomalies and cancers.

Computed Tomography Scan (CT Scan)

A CT scan (short for Computed Tomography scan) is a non-invasive medical imaging procedure that combines X-ray technology with computer processing to create detailed cross-sectional images (often called slices) of the body. It allows doctors to view internal structures, such as bones, soft tissues, and blood vessels, in much more detail than a regular X-ray.

CT scans are commonly used to:

It helps healthcare professionals to make accurate diagnoses and treatment decisions. The scan typically involves lying still on a table while the machine rotates around your body, taking multiple X-ray images from different angles, which are then processed by a computer into detailed images.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Computed Tomography Scan

What are the differences between MRI and CT Scan?

Rapid X-rays
Comprehensive Images.

CT scans record a quick sequence of X-ray images that are combined to produce images of the scanned area.

MRI:
Magnetic Insight into the Body.

Using powerful magnetic fields, an MRI creates images of the interior of the body.

CT scans lead, MRIs reveal more

CT scans are typically the first imaging method used. For some conditions that a CT scan is unable to identify, MRIs are helpful.

Imaging with care
Benefit over risk.

These imaging examinations are only used by doctors when the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

What is X-Ray?

An X-ray is a type of radiation that can pass through the body to create images of the inside. It’s commonly used in medicine to look at the bones, tissues, and organs. X-rays work by sending a controlled amount of radiation through your body, and the denser parts (like bones) block the radiation, while softer tissues (like muscles) allow more of it to pass through.

The X-ray machine then captures this pattern on a special film or digital sensor, creating an image that shows the differences in density inside your body. This helps doctors spot problems
like fractures, infections, or issues with your organs.

It’s a quick, non-invasive, and generally safe procedure, although the amount of radiation is very small. X-rays are one of the most common ways to diagnose injuries and illnesses.

What is Ultrasound?

Ultrasound is a medical imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of the inside of the body. It is commonly used to visualize soft tissues and organs, including the heart, liver, kidneys, and reproductive organs. Ultrasound is non-invasive, meaning it doesn’t require any incisions or injections, and it is considered safe because it doesn’t use radiation, unlike X-rays or CT scans.

The process involves a device called a transducer, which emits sound waves and then listens to the echoes that bounce back from the tissues. These sound waves travel through the body and reflect differently depending on the type of tissue they encounter. The echoes are then used to create real-time images of the organs or structures being examined.

Functions

Ultrasound is often used for:

Monitoring
pregnancy

Ultrasounds are indispensable in prenatal care. They provide expecting parents and doctors with the first images of the unborn baby, allowing them to monitor the baby’s growth, development, and health throughout the pregnancy.

Guiding
needle biopsies

With its ability to produce live images, ultrasound is ideal for guiding procedures like needle biopsies. This ensures precise placement of the needle to accurately sample cells from organs like the liver or kidneys.

Assessing
blood flow

Doppler ultrasound is a special application that can visualize blood flow in the arteries and veins. It helps diagnose conditions such as blood clots, blocked arteries, and the narrowing of vessels, which are critical.

Diagnosing conditions

Ultrasound is used to examine various parts of the body including the abdomen, thyroid gland, and reproductive organs. It helps in detecting abnormalities such as cysts, tumors, and other conditions often without the need for more invasive tests.

Examining the heart

Echocardiograms, a specific type of ultrasound of the heart, provide detailed images that help assess heart function. This includes the heart’s chambers, valves, and the flow of blood in between, essential for diagnosing heart diseases.
