At Apollo Hospitals, we offer specialized expertise across multiple branches of radiology, each serving distinct purposes in healthcare. Our comprehensive approach ensures that you receive the most appropriate imaging care for your specific medical needs.
Diagnostic radiology forms the cornerstone of modern medical imaging, focusing on capturing detailed images of your body to identify various conditions and guide treatment decisions. Our diagnostic radiology services utilize several key technologies:
X-ray Imaging The most fundamental form of medical imaging, X-rays help us examine bone structures, detect fractures, and identify various chest conditions. Our digital X-ray systems provide clear images while minimizing radiation exposure.
Computed Tomography (CT) CT scanning combines X-rays with advanced computer processing to create detailed cross-sectional images of your body. This technology is particularly valuable for:
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Using powerful magnetic fields and radio waves, MRI provides exceptional detail of soft tissues without radiation. This technology excels in examining:
Ultrasound This radiation-free technology uses sound waves to create real-time images, particularly useful for:
Our interventional radiology team specializes in minimally invasive, image-guided procedures that can both diagnose and treat conditions. These procedures often replace traditional surgery, offering:

These imaging technologies serve different purposes in diagnostic care. X-rays use radiation to create basic images, particularly useful for examining bones and detecting conditions like fractures or chest infections. They're quick and provide immediate results.
CT (Computed Tomography) scans combine multiple X-ray images to create detailed cross-sectional views of your body. Think of it like looking at a loaf of bread slice by slice. This technology is excellent for detecting internal injuries, tumors, or detailed bone structures. It's particularly valuable in emergency situations.
MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) uses magnetic fields and radio waves instead of radiation to create highly detailed images of soft tissues. This makes it especially useful for examining the brain, spinal cord, muscles, and ligaments. While MRI scans take longer than X-rays or CT scans, they provide exceptionally detailed images without using radiation.
The radiation exposure from medical imaging is carefully controlled and minimized following the ALARA principle (As Low As Reasonably Achievable). Modern imaging equipment at Apollo Hospitals uses advanced technology to reduce radiation exposure while maintaining image quality. The benefits of detecting serious conditions through these scans generally outweigh the minimal risks from radiation exposure.
For perspective, a chest X-ray exposes you to about the same amount of radiation you'd receive from a few days of natural background radiation in your environment. However, we always take special precautions for pregnant women and children, often using alternative imaging methods like ultrasound or MRI when possible.
Preparation requirements vary depending on the type of imaging you're having. For basic X-rays, no special preparation is typically needed. However, for CT scans or MRIs with contrast, you may need to:
We'll provide specific preparation instructions when you schedule your appointment.
Contrast agents are substances used to improve the visibility of certain structures or tissues during imaging procedures. They might be given orally, injected, or administered in other ways depending on what part of your body is being examined.
While contrast agents are generally safe, some people may experience mild reactions like nausea or itching. Serious allergic reactions are rare, occurring in less than 1% of cases. Our radiology team is fully trained to handle any reactions, and we carefully screen patients for risk factors before administering contrast. We also tailor the type and amount of contrast to each patient's needs.
Procedure times vary significantly depending on the type of imaging:
The actual scanning time might be shorter, but we need to ensure proper positioning and, in some cases, wait for contrast agents to distribute through your body. We'll give you a more specific time estimate when scheduling your appointment.
At Apollo Hospitals, we understand the importance of timely results. Most imaging results are available within 24 hours, though some specialized studies may take longer. Your results will be:
