X-Ray

மேலோட்டம்

Digital X-ray is one of the fastest and most useful diagnostic tools in a hospital — used for everything from chest infections and bony injuries to abdominal screening and pre-operative assessment. We operate a dedicated X-ray room with trained technicians, and all examinations are reported by our consultant radiologist. Radiation safety follows AERB guidelines, and shielding is provided for accompanying attendants.
