Radiology and Imaging Sciences
Imaging
plays a vital role in determining the accuracy of
diagnosis and the subsequent planning of treatment. The
clarity and sophistication of the images help doctors
and surgeons plan every aspect of surgery in advance. In
other words, imaging is the ‘the visual inspection of
internal organs without incision’. No expense has been
sparedto equip the Department of Radiology and Imaging
Sciences at MIOT Hospitals with the most advanced
facilities, supported by competent technologists.
64 Slice CT: (Volume CT, GE
Medical System USA)
| |
 |
The 64 Slice CT is the latest and most
advanced scanner currently available in the
world. Its advantages is the rapid and high
resolution imaging of the entire body within
few seconds, which is a boon especially for
trauma cases, acutely ill patients and
children. Another major advantage is the
non-invasive imaging of blood vessels of the
heart which enable speedy diagnosis of heart
disease.
The 64 Slice CT can produce detailed
pictures of any organ in a few seconds and
provide exquisitely clear, three-dimensional
images in an instant, enabling precise
diagnosis. Imaging of blood |
vessels of the heart as well as the entire body is
possible. The CT is also used to perform virtual
endoscopies i.e. colonoscopy, bronchoscopy or
angioscopy thereby avoiding an invasive process.

MRI: (1.5 Tesla, Whole Body HDX MRI-GE Medical
System, USA)
The
1.5 T MRI scanner is one of the most advanced equipments
available for the whole body imaging. In addition to routine
studies such as spine, brain and joint evaluation,
specialized studies like spectroscopy, diffusion tensor
imaging, MR angiogram and MR mammogram are also performed.
The Department is one of the few centres in the city to
perform breast imaging using dedicated equipment and
software. |

The three workstations in the Department
help the radiologist to process images in 3D
Advances in imaging technology is pushing
the specialty to greater heights – allowing
us to detect diseases earlier, offer
minimally invasive treatment option for
patients and provide an overall enhanced
level of care. |
