From a simple X-ray to advanced CT and MRI — our imaging department gives your doctors the clear pictures they need for accurate diagnosis. Digital equipment, qualified radiologists, and reports without long waits.
Our Radiology & Imaging department is equipped with digital radiography, multi-slice CT, MRI, ultrasound with colour Doppler, and mammography — covering virtually every imaging need under one roof.
All studies are reported by qualified radiologists. For emergencies — trauma, stroke, acute abdomen — imaging and reporting are prioritised round the clock, because minutes matter.
For admitted patients, portable X-ray and bedside ultrasound mean critically ill patients don’t need to be moved. PACS digital archiving keeps your images safely retrievable for future comparisons.
Chest, bones, joints, spine and abdomen — instant digital images with minimal radiation dose.
Multi-slice CT for head, chest, abdomen, angiography and trauma — with and without contrast.
Detailed soft-tissue imaging of brain, spine, joints and abdomen — no radiation involved.
Abdominal, pelvic, pregnancy (obstetric) scans and colour Doppler vascular studies.
Ultrasound/CT-guided biopsies, aspirations and drain placements by interventional radiologists.
X-ray and ultrasound are mostly walk-in; CT/MRI slots are booked at the counter.
Some scans need fasting or a full bladder — the counter gives you exact instructions.
Technologist positions you and performs the study. Contrast injection if your scan requires it.
Qualified radiologist reports your study; films/CD and report handed over as scheduled.
Call to book your CT or MRI slot, confirm preparation instructions, and get the exact subsidised price for your scan.

Diagnostic X-rays use very small radiation doses, and our digital systems keep doses to the minimum needed. CT uses more than plain X-ray, which is why it is done only when medically justified. The diagnostic benefit far outweighs the small risk. Always tell staff if you are or might be pregnant.
Neither is universally better — they see different things. CT is faster and excellent for bones, chest and emergencies. MRI shows soft tissues (brain, spinal cord, ligaments) in greater detail and uses no radiation but takes longer. Your doctor chooses based on what needs to be seen.
Contrast dye highlights blood vessels and certain tissues, revealing details invisible on plain scans. We screen kidney function and allergy history before giving contrast. Mild warmth during injection is normal; serious reactions are rare and our team is equipped to handle them.
Tell us when booking. Many patients manage with simple measures — eye mask, music, a family member in the room, and constant intercom contact with the technologist. For severe claustrophobia, your doctor may prescribe a mild sedative for the scan.
Yes — we accept imaging prescriptions from any registered doctor. Our subsidised rates often make us the most affordable option in the region, and scheme patients (CGHS/ESI/etc.) get cashless imaging as per entitlement.
Walk in for X-ray and ultrasound, or call to book your CT/MRI slot with preparation guidance.
