➧ Radiology

• The Department offers utmost quality in imaging, accuracy in reporting with minimum waiting times.

• An addition to all types of conventional radiography, the department is also capable of performing any fluoroscopic-dependant special radiological procedures. The procedures are performed under the direct supervision of senior, experienced and qualified Radiologists

Ultrasonography

• The Department is equipped with the latest Doppler machines.

• All types of conventional, abdominal, small parts sonography are performed with the reports being authenticated by a qualified team of sonologists.

• US guided biopsies/aspirations are routinely done with a high level of target accuracy and post-procedure care.

The Radiology Department at FIC now gains another dimension in digital imaging by acquiring the most-modern Computed Radiography system, the Capsula XL-II

Advantages of Computed Radiography System

• Consistent and stable image density & contrast.

• Optimized clear & sharp images for each anatomical region.

• Improved diagnostics of soft tissues , bones , lumbar spine & abdomen , fluoroscopy , chest , IVP etc

• No chance of cross – over of patient's images as each file is electronically labelled with the patient's information.

• Over 50% lower x-rays dose – a major benefit for patients

• Single x-ray dosage for multiple diagnostic needs i.e one x-ray exposure for bone and tissue details.

• Faster turnaround times as opposed to conventional radiography.

• By adjusting image brightness, a wide range of thicknesses can be examined in one shot, unlike conventional radiography, which requires a different exposure time for each thickness in a component. Thus requires fewer re-shots due to under- or over-exposure.

• Images can be stored on disk or emailed for off-site review.
