By integrating clinical expertise with advanced imaging technologies, the department supports timely diagnosis, treatment planning, and ongoing patient management.

Department Overview

The Radiology and Scan Department at Peoples Medical Hospital is equipped to meet the diagnostic needs of both outpatient and inpatient services. It provides essential imaging services to support departments such as internal medicine, surgery, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, and emergency care.

Led by trained medical personnel, the department operates under high standards of safety, precision, and professionalism. While specific technologies may evolve with time, the commitment to patient-centered diagnostic excellence remains constant.

Core Imaging Services

The department offers a range of foundational imaging services, including:

  • Digital X-ray Imaging
    Used for evaluating bones, chest, abdomen, and other areas, digital X-rays provide clear and fast results, essential for both routine and emergency cases.

  • Ultrasound Scanning
    Non-invasive and versatile, ultrasound is used extensively in obstetrics, abdominal assessments, gynecology, soft tissue evaluation, and vascular imaging.

  • Portable Imaging Support
    In critical care and immobile patient scenarios, portable X-ray or ultrasound equipment may be used at the bedside, ensuring continuous care without moving unstable patients.

These imaging modalities are key to early diagnosis, reducing delays in treatment, and minimizing unnecessary referrals.


Integration with Clinical Services

Radiology at Peoples Medical Hospital is deeply integrated into clinical workflows. Whether evaluating trauma cases, assessing pregnancies, guiding surgical decisions, or monitoring chronic conditions, imaging provides clinicians with accurate and timely insights.

Collaboration between radiologists, sonographers, general physicians, and specialists ensures a multidisciplinary approach to patient care. Images are interpreted with precision, and results are promptly communicated to the relevant departments to aid in decision-making.


Quality Assurance and Safety

The hospital places strong emphasis on radiation safety, proper calibration of machines, and quality control. All scans are performed following clinical guidelines to ensure minimal exposure, especially for vulnerable populations such as children and pregnant women.

Staff receive ongoing training in the latest imaging practices and patient care protocols. This continuous development ensures that the department remains aligned with international standards of radiological practice.
