  1. Diagnostic Imaging
    • X-ray (Radiography): A common imaging technique to evaluate bone fractures, lung conditions, and abdominal issues.
    • Computed Tomography (CT) Scans: Provides detailed cross-sectional images of organs and tissues, useful for detecting tumors, injuries, and diseases.
    • Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI): 3T MRI generates high-resolution images of soft tissues for Whole Body Imaging, Cardiac Imaging, Musculoskeletal Imaging, Neurological Imaging, Abdominal Imaging, Thoracic Imaging Etc.
    • Ultrasound (Sonography): Uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images of soft tissues, organs, and blood flow. Commonly used in obstetrics, and abdominal assessments.
    • Mammography: Specialized imaging for breast tissue, primarily for breast cancer diagnosis and screening.
    • Fluoroscopy: Provides real-time imaging, often used in gastrointestinal exams (e.g., barium swallow) or during certain interventional procedures.
       
  2. Interventional Radiology
    • Minimally invasive procedures: Radiologists use imaging guidance (such as CT, ultrasound, or fluoroscopy) to perform procedures biopsies, FNACs, abscess drainage, pigtail insertion, ascites/pleural fluid tapping etc.
       
  3. Paediatric Radiology
    • Special imaging techniques tailored for children, with considerations for lower radiation exposure and managing young patients during scans.
    • Includes all standard imaging methods like X-rays, CT, MRI, and ultrasounds, with a focus on conditions affecting children.
       
  4. Emergency Radiology
    • Fast, high-quality imaging services for trauma and acute conditions (e.g., fractures, internal bleeding, or stroke).
    • Includes CT scans, X-rays, and ultrasounds to assist in rapid diagnosis and treatment planning.
    • Portable ultrasound and x-ray facility available.
       
  5. Radiology for Oncology
    • Ultrasound, CT & MRI Imaging to help in the diagnosis, staging, and follow-up of primary malignancies and metastatic disease.
    • Includes specialized imaging to assess the size, location, and spread of malignancies.
       
  6. Musculoskeletal Radiology
    • Focuses on diagnosing musculoskeletal conditions including bone fractures, degenerative diseases, arthritis, joint disorders, and soft tissue injuries.
    • Includes X-ray, Ultrasound, advanced MRI and CT imaging for bones, joints, muscles, and tendons.
       
  7. Cardiovascular Radiology
    • Imaging techniques such as peripheral angiography, brain angiography and cardiac angiography using CT & MRI to assess the heart and vascular system in adults as well as paediatric population including coronary artery disease, heart failure, and congenital heart conditions.
    • Doppler imaging of peripheral arteries and veins, head and neck vessels and abdominal vessels.
      ​
  8. Neurological Radiology
    • Diagnostic imaging of the brain, spine, and nervous system, using MRI, CT, and PET scans to detect conditions like strokes, brain tumors, spinal cord injuries, or multiple sclerosis.
    • Advanced MRI techniques such as DTI, perfusion mapping, MR spectroscopy etc.
       
  9. Obstetric and Gynaecological Radiology
    • Obstetric Ultrasound: Antenatal USG for monitoring fetal development during pregnancy, detecting abnormalities, and assessing maternal health
      • Viability scan
      • NT NB scan
      • Level II scan
      • Growth scan
      • Colour Doppler
         
    • ​Gynaecological Imaging: Imaging for conditions such as fibroids, ovarian cysts, and pelvic inflammatory disease, commonly using ultrasound and MRI.
      ​
  10. Gastrointestinal Radiology
    • Imaging of the digestive system using techniques like fluoroscopy (e.g., barium swallow), CT, MRI, and ultrasound to assess conditions like ulcers, cancers, or inflammatory bowel disease.
    • Specialized imaging such as Triple phase CT to detect and characterize liver masses & MRCP for the biliary system and pancreas
       
  11. Infection and Inflammation Imaging
    • Using imaging tools to diagnose infections (e.g., abscesses or pneumonia) and inflammatory conditions (e.g., arthritis or appendicitis).
      ​
  12. Preoperative Imaging
    • Radiology services to assess the condition of organs and tissues before surgery, guiding surgical planning, and assessing risks.
       
  13. Follow-up and Monitoring
    • Ongoing imaging to monitor the progress of treatment for diseases like cancer, infections, or organ conditions.
    • Regular imaging for patients undergoing chronic treatment for chronic diseases (e.g., dialysis or cancer therapy).
       
  14. Mammography
    • Screening for early detection of breast cancer.
       
  15. DEXA
    • Osteoporosis
    • Fracture risk assessment.
       
  16. OPG
    • Dental X-rays.
       
  17. Skeletal survey
    • Bone age estimation
    • Metastasis assessment
       
  18. Portable x-rays
  19. Research and Education
    • Participation in clinical trials and research to develop new imaging technologies and techniques.
    • Radiology departments may offer educational services to medical staff, residents, and students on new imaging practices.
