The Radio Diagnosis and Imaging Department of ELMC&H is one of the best centres of its kind in North India.
The Department has very recently acquired a state-of-the-art MRI MACHINE with high resolution and very precise diagnostic efficiency. It has become very valuable in the diagnosis of diseases of the CNS and musculoskeletal system. Dedicated mamography coil is of help in MR mamogram. Diffusion and MRCP sequences have excellent results. Besides this the department also possesses the most modern and state-of-the-art machines like Spiral CT Scanner, Mammography machine, High-Resolution Colour Doppler, the latest Ultrasound and X-ray machines.
Era’s Lucknow Medical College & Hospital becomes the first Medical College of India and the first Institution in Asia with Worlds Fastest 400 Slices in .25 sec and Frontier Software.
In our premises we have installed Somatom force CT Scan Machine which is worlds fastest and technically most advance system which can scan entire heart in approximately 150 ms: faster than a heartbeat. It can scan thorax-abdomen in just one second. With this unit we are two steps ahead in Preventive Care with kidney-friendly scanning and low dose early detection. We are two steps ahead in Freezing Motion with "free-breathing" CT imaging and the industry's fastest, most versatile scan mode. Also we are two steps ahead in Decision Making with 4D imaging at half the regular dose and precise Dual Energy quantification. With this unit we are able to do:-
Preventive Care
Increasing scan speed to unmatched 737 mm/s, and providing a field of view of up to 50 cm at Flash speed coverage, the Turbo Flash mode expands the Flash Spiral capabilities. Bringing the benefits of Flash to obese and acute care patients, and potentially reducing the number of protocols and associated preparation time
Decision Making
4D imaging at half the dose (Radiations):
The clear benefits of dynamic evaluations, the applied dose have been the crucial threshold to broaden its application, especially to body perfusion. The Machine significantly lowers this hurdle by not only extending the coverage to 22 cm for perfusion (and even 80 cm for CTAs), but particularly by reducing the applied X-Ray dose by up to 50% compared to today's leading CT systems.
The best part is that we are providing free of cost CT Scan facility with this world’s fastest machine which have been installed first time in any medical colleges across the country. Also this is only the third unit which has been installed in Asia.
