Radiology & Imaging Sciences
 

The Department of Radiology and Imaging and Interventional science consists of the latest equipment manned by qualified doctors and offers 24-hour elective and emergency services. This is the largest Radiology department under one roof compromising of state-of-the-art supraconducting MRI of Phillips make, Spiral CT scanner, 3D advanced Color Doppler & sonography imaging system from ATC & GE etc.

 
Interventional Radiology
 

This department has 800 MA & 500 MA systems exclusively on IITV. All the contrast investigations are performed under direct vision. This is the only department in the state to have dedicated Cathlab exclusively for radiological procedures. Advanced interventional Radiological procedures are done regularly such as Cerebral angiograms, embolisations of cerebral AVMs and Tumours, Endovascular coiling of cerebral aneurysms.
