Introduction
Deptt. Of Radiodiagnosis came in existence on 1986 headed by Dr. S.V. Thakar after bifurcation of the department of Radiology to dept of Radiodiagnosis and dept of Radiotherapy. At that time department had only X-Ray & one USG Machine with limited work of X-Ray and USG modalities. Now the department has expanded in shape with multiple newer modalities.
Now the department is equipped with multiple X-ray and USG Machines,128 SLICE CT Scan machine, One 3Tesla MRI machine ,Digital substraction angiography(DSA) Radiofrequency ablation, lithotripsy and mammography machine. Approximately 15 beds has also been allotted to department for inpatient management in interventional radiology.Number of patient examined has dramatically increased in the department.
AT the time of inception there was 1 PG seat which subsequently increased to 1MD + 3 DIPLOMA seats which further increased to 7 MD + 3 DIPLOMA seats in 2014 and now has capacity of 12 M.D seats /year since year 2020.
