The Department of Radiology at Nepal Mediciti offers a comprehensive range of diagnostic imaging services crucial for assessing and treating various medical conditions. These services include several types of imaging technologies such as X-rays for viewing bones and some internal organs, CT Scans (Computed Tomography) for detailed cross-sectional images of the body, MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) for in-depth images of soft tissues, and Ultrasound for imaging soft tissues and organs using sound waves. Additionally, Mammography is used specifically for breast imaging.
The department also encompasses Interventional Radiology, which involves minimally invasive procedures guided by imaging techniques, such as Biopsies for taking tissue samples, Angiography for imaging blood vessels and detecting abnormalities, and Drainage Procedures for removing fluid or pus from specific areas. Other specialized areas include Paediatric Radiology, focusing on imaging for infants and children, Neuro-radiology for brain and spinal imaging, Emergency Radiology for urgent cases, and Radiology Informatics, which manages and interprets imaging data, often involving digital imaging and electronic health records.
