Radiology & Imaging

Overview

Radiology is a subdomain of medicine wherein imaging technologies, such as computed tomography (CT), ultrasound, radiography (conventional X-ray imaging), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and fluoroscopy, are leveraged to diagnose and treat medical conditions as diverse as cancer, infections, musculoskeletal disorders, cardiovascular and neurological conditions, trauma, and bone fractures.

Diagnostic Radiology is a subdomain of Radiology that deals with imaging the internal structures of the body (e.g., using X-rays to view bone fractures), whereas Interventional Radiology—another subdomain of Radiology—involves leveraging image guidance to perform minimally invasive procedures—i.e., medical techniques that involve small cuts—(e.g., Angiography and Angioplasty, wherein X-rays are used to visualize the interior of blood vessels (angiography) and—if blockages are found—opening them with balloon angioplasty). The Radiology & Imaging Department at the Reliance Foundation Hospital is equipped with advanced equipment for accurate disease diagnosis and treatment.

The SOMATOM Force is the first fast 4D Dual Source CT scanner in the world. It contains two detector arrays and two X-ray sources for simultaneous use. The optimal positioning of the two X-ray sources enables the user to achieve spectral image information at high temporal resolutions. Unlike conventional CT scanners, the SOMATOM Force can perform high-resolution ultrafast scanning, requiring only low doses of radiation and minimal amounts of the contrast agent.

It can scan obese, tall, children, elderly, critical, and unconscious patients without sedation. It allows the scanning of patients while they breathe freely. Hence, motion artefacts, which can make it difficult to evaluate the results and can even lead to misdiagnosis, are minimised with this scanner.

  • It has an unmatched rotation speed, scanning an entire heart in approximately 150 milliseconds and an entire patient from head to toe in less than 20 seconds.

The GE SIGNA Premier 3T MRI Scanner installed at the Reliance Foundation Hospital is the most powerful 3T wide-bore MRI scanner on the market and was the first system installed in India. This machine has set a new performance standard, showing high efficiency for even the most demanding applications; it is capable of performing a routine brain examination in less than 5 minutes, yielding outstanding image quality, while preserving a high signal-to-noise ratio. The GE SIGNA Premier 3T MRI Scanner incorporates:

  • AIR™ technologies powered by Edison artificial intelligence (AI)–based applications for rapid scans and uncompromised image quality.
  • AIR™ Coils for unprecedented patient comfort.
  • AIR™ Recon DL for TrueFidelity™ MR Images deep-learning–based reconstruction application.
  • HyperWorks Suite-Acceleration technologies for rapid imaging.
  • Shortest echo time for enhanced diffusion imaging for oncology and liver disease research and imaging.
  • The Orchestra GE Collaboration Portal and multiple user groups for research development and clinical translation.

This system demonstrates outstanding functional MRI stability and a high radiofrequency channel count with AIR™ Coils, along with a plethora of deep-learning applications.

3T magnet MRI system SIGNA™ Architect remains among the top three platforms of high-end 3T MRI scanners from GE Healthcare. It provides exceptional image quality and an elevated patient experience. This scalable and upgradable system offers the following advantages:

  • With exceptional gradient performance, this system sets a high standard for precision.
  • Allows effortless workflow with products, such as AIR™ Recon DL, AIR™ coils, and Sonic DL™, designed to enhance imaging and diagnostic efficiency.
  • The integration of AIR™ technology, such as AIR™ coils, which are lighter than Rigid coils, contributes to an enhanced MR experience, combining clinical versatility with patient comfort.
  • The dockable eXpress Patient Table adds operational flexibility.
  • Enables feet-first imaging for all exams, allowing the implementation of a patient-friendly approach.

Open MRI is a revolutionary medical imaging technology that offers patients a more comfortable and spacious experience than traditional closed MRI machines. With its open design, patients no longer feel confined or claustrophobic during the procedure, making it ideal for individuals with anxiety or discomfort in enclosed spaces

Moreover, open MRI provides exceptionally clear and detailed images of the body’s internal structures, allowing healthcare professionals to diagnose and monitor various medical conditions with precision. This patient-friendly innovation in medical imaging represents a significant advancement in healthcare, ensuring a stress-free and effective diagnostic process for all

Patients who are bariatric face enough struggles in their daily lives and undergoing a diagnostic imaging procedure should not be one of them. The Oasis Velocity system uses its high weight capacity, wide and comfortable patient table, and unlimited lateral opening to deliver comfortable, high-quality MRI exams to patients of any size

It has the following advantages over other systems:

  • An industry-best table capacity of 660 lb (300 kg) accommodates a diverse patient population.
  • A wide patient table of 32 inches (82 cm) places anatomical regions comfortably at the iso-centre for an optimal signal-to-noise ratio
  • Three-axis motorised lateral table movement provides convenience
  • The table lowers to 20 inches (51 cm) for easy accessibility
  • Sensitive multichannel radiofrequency coil technology that can be adjusted for all patients

Comfortable MRI Experience: The MAGNETOM Free.Max offers the world’s first 80-cm bore open MRI; this represents— a new paradigm with regard to patient experience. It is ideal for patients who are claustrophobic as nearly 70% of exams are conducted with the head outside the scanner.

Patient-Friendly Coils: Equipped with ultra-lightweight contour coils, the MAGNETOM Free.Max is gentle and suitable for paediatric patients, foetal MRI, and neonates.

Improved Implant Imaging: The MAGNETOM Free.Max reduces metal artefacts during scans, offering clear images of patients with MRI-compatible implants.

Text BoxText BoxMAGNETOM Free.MaxAccurate Results With Sharper Images: The AI-powered Deep Resolve Sharp technology is capable of producing high-resolution images from low-resolution scans, providing detailed and accurate results and enhancing diagnostic confidence.

Lowest Specific Absorption Rate MRI Scanner: The scanner prioritises patient safety and minimises electromagnetic exposure. Increased heat generated by powerful magnets makes the patient uncomfortable. MAGNETOM Free.Max generates eight times less heat than powerful magnets in the market.

Quiet Scanning Experience: MAGNETOM Free.Max offers quieter MR scans than conventional MRI scanners, helping patients remain comfortable and relaxed throughout the procedure.

Deep Resolve Software: Deep Resolve is a raw data-to-image, AI-powered deep-learning reconstruction technology capable of radically accelerated image acquisition, whilst maintaining a high signal-to-noise ratio; it can generate short scans that boost workflow efficiency while improving patient experience.
