RADIOLOGY & IMAGING

A variety of imaging techniques such as X-ray radiography, ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are used to diagnose and/or treat diseases.

• X-ray: An X-ray is a quick, painless procedure that produces images of the structures inside your body - particularly your bones.
  
  X-ray beams pass through the body, and they are absorbed in different amounts depending on the density of the material they pass through. Dense materials, such as bone and metal, show up as white on X-rays. The air in your lungs shows up as black. Fat and muscle appear as shades of gray.
  
  For some types of X-ray tests, a contrast medium — such as iodine or barium — is introduced into your body to provide greater detail on the images.
  
  Siemens’ 500, an X-Ray machine can take most advanced and clear x-rays with less radiation exposure to you. Most advanced Digital CR System technology by Fuji provides easy to interpret clear pictures which helps in proper diagnosis.
  
  Preparation: For x-rays of KUB (Kidney-Ureter-Bladder), Abdomen, Lumber and Coccyx region patient should be in empty stomach and should clear stool properly.

• USG (Ultrasonography): Ultrasonography is a diagnostic medical procedure that uses sound waves to produce images on a screen, which allows medical providers to view internal structures of the body.
• Sono-mammography: Sono-mammography or breast ultrasound is a non-invasive procedure performed to assess the breasts and the blood flow to areas inside it. This test allows quick visualization of the breast tissue.
