Imaging and Interventional Radiology

Diagnostic imaging has grown by leaps and bounds in the last few decades especially with the advent of non-invasive CT angiography and newer pulse sequences in MRI. True to its commitment to bring world class facilities at affordable price for the people of Eastern region, Devan hospital has upgraded the diagnostic facilities and introduced Interventional Radiology to diagnose Neurological, Gastrointestinal & Urological problems. A glimpse of facilities and procedures available, are listed below.
