TACKLING AILMENTS WITH STATE –OF THE ART IMAGING - THE DEPARTMENT OF RADIOLOGY The Department of Radiology at Umrao Hospitals is equipped with State-of-the-art imaging technology. Day-in-and-day-out the department works towards the diagnosis or treatment of disease with the guidance of imaging technology. The department is well-aided by the service of trained and highly qualified medical personal who are not only qualified to carry out radiology procedures but are also trained in imparting patient-centric care. Since efforts are made towards minimizing patient discomfort and waiting time during and prior to the procedures.

The department lends a holistic approach to radiology and works in close coordination with all the other departments in the hospital as well as external clinician, providing a platform for practicing high quality, evidence-base
FACILITIES
  1. X-ray: The X-ray facility at Umrao hospitals is equipped with Advanced Digital Computed Radiography System that is used to perform various radiographic procedures for different parts of the body like chest, abdomen, joint and bones. Advanced X-ray System have tightly controlled X-ray beams with significant filtration and close control methods to minimize stray or scatter radiation, Special care is taken during X-ray examinations to use the lowest radiation close possible while producing the best images for evaluation. There is also facility for portable X-rays to be taken for bed-ridden or seriously ill patients in emergency room and ICU. National and international radiology protection councils continually review and update the technical standards used by radiology professionals, Specialized procedures like barium, IVP,HSG,MCU etc, are also done under fluoroscopic guidance.
  2. Ultrasound with Color Doppler: The Ultrasound machine at Umrao Hospitals is equipped with high end transducers and has a facility for B-mode as well as Color Doppler imaging. Advanced scanning for detecting fetal anomalies is done in high risk pregnant patients. Specialized studies for detecting arterial or venous thrombosis are performed to assess blood flow to various parts if the body likes limbs, kidneys, brain, uterus, etc. Gynecological examination for various disorders and follicle growth monitoring is also done. Ultrasound guided procedures like aspirations and biopsies are routinely performed here.
  3. Mammography: This is a specialized X-ray of the breasts performed on an exclusive X-ray unit which has a special facility to allow only the breast tissue to be exposed. A detailed study of the breast in two separate views and angles enables to radiologist to detect lumps or abnormal calcification in the breast. This is future evaluated with specialized views or on ultrasound examination of the breast to reach a diagnosis. Screening mammograms are also routinely performed for early detection of breast cancer.
  4. Bone Densitometry: High-end Densitometry equipped with Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry scanners are available at Umrao Hospitals. The procedure of Bone Densitometry primarily enables the measurement of bone density in the spine and hip. Care is taken by a trained Radiologist to perform all the procedures under minimal radiation.
  5. 64 Channel CT Scan: 64 Channel CT Scan placed on the ground floor can perform the most advanced multi-slice CT Studies with highest level of performance. It is equipped with the latest dual head injector. In addition to CT scan that are normally performed on head, neck, chest and abdomen, the Radiology Department is equipped to perform many advanced procedures under stringent Supervision of experts. It has latest and advanced software application like 3D reconstructions using Maximum Intensity Projection (MP), Volume Rendering (VR), Surface shaded display (SSD) and Multi Planner Reconstructions (MPR). The highlight of the scanner is high quality CT Coronary Angiography which can be wonderfully used for non-invasive assessment of the heart and to detect stenosis /occlusion of coronary arteries.
  6. 1.5 Tesla MRI: The 1.5 Tesla MRI can perform the routine MR imaging with high diagnostic quality. Detailed analysis of any part of the body can be done. It is useful for detecting cancer and infection along with evaluation if post traumatic cases. The highlight of the machines is the ability to perform angiography of any part of body without giving contract. Along with doing the routine MR procedures, machine is capable of performing advanced diagnostic well.

Advanced Procedures in MRI include:
  • Magnetic Resonance Angiography
  • Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy
  • Magnetic Resonance Perfusion
  • Diffusion Tensor imaging
  • Whole Body Diffusion

Being the best in imaging technology, the department strives to offer highest quality patient care.
