Department of Radiodiagnosis

The Department of Radiodiagnosis, Kailash Hospital is fully equipped with latest technologies to provide services par excellence all around the year. The department is complemented with a team of competent radiologists from premier institutions, technicians & staff to provide best services.

Various investigations done by the Department of Radiodiagnosis include:

MRI scan is done with 1.5 Tesla "Gyroscan Intera", an ultrafast scanner from Philips, Netherland. MRI uses strong magnetic field and radio waves rather than X-rays to provide remarkably clear and detailed pictures of internal organs, tissues and pathology thus avoiding the risk of exposure to radiation.

» MRI head is the most sensitive examination for brain tumor, stroke and chronic disorders of nervous system.

» MRI spine is the most suitable modality to diagnose disc degeneration, tumors and infections in spine & cord with intricate details as no other modality can give.

» MRI musculo-skeletal is most frequently used to image knee, shoulder, hip, ankle, foot, wrist, elbow and hand joints.

» MRI body is valuable for diagnosis of a broad range of conditions in all parts of body like abdomen, pelvis and chest. MRCP can easily detect disorders of the biliary tract noninvasively.

» MRI in ENT is an excellent modality to scan the inner ear. The VIIth - VIIIth nerve complex, the cochlea & vestibule can be seen in great detail. Paranasal sinuses can be seen in sagittal, axial & coronal planes, while the patient lies in the supine position. Sinusits, mucosal hypertrophy, polyps and tumors too can be seen in great detail.

» MRI - Angiography helps to study blood vessels without giving contrast. Contrast enhanced angiography is performed for the abdominal and peripheral vessels.

The department uses a Multislice Spiral Scanner from Siemens, Germany for efficient whole body examinations. This Scanner is designed for excellent image quality and low radiation dose. The Scanner represents a milestone with respect to increased volume of coverage and good resolutions with shortened examination time. It enables standard CT examinations and 3D post processing.

» CT Angiography is useful for diagnosis of aneursym, plaques, stenosis and other vascular anomalies.

» Syngo-3D:SS display is useful to visualize soft tissue, bone, contrast enhanced vessels, etc. in different densities and planes.

» Real time MPR enables to view perspective in sagittal, coronal, para-axial & oblique planes

» Syngo - FLY Through post processing enables virtual endoscopy / bronchoscopy software for visualisation of hollow structure such as vessels, airway and intestines.
