Serving the diagnostic and healthcare needs of all our patients, we offer comprehensive, state-of-the-art diagnostic radiology and image-guided interventional services at our hospital. Our radiologists perform thousands of therapeutic procedures every year, giving them the clinical experience to be leaders in this field. They specialise in acquiring and interpreting images for specific parts of the body or specific diseases.
Taking this a step further, our interventional radiologists diagnose and cure patients through image-guided, minimally-invasive methods such as CT and X-Rays. Our expert team detects a number of diseases by carefully guiding medical instruments through minute incisions to directly reach the root of the disease. This is especially useful in heart diseases, cancer, stroke and even specific conditions like uterine fibroids.

FAQs
Want to find out more about the treatment? The answer to your questions can be found below.
What does a radiologist do?
Interventional radiologists ensure painless, noninvasive, and image-guided diagnosis and treatments. They work collaboratively with other doctors and surgeons to enhance patient care by monitoring their health conditions and preparing personalised treatment plans. Their expertise includes various skills that go beyond traditional radiology or surgeries.
What question should you ask a radiologist?
When you meet with an interventional radiologist, it's important to ask certain questions to understand the symptoms and treatment options. These questions can include why you need interventional radiology, what causes it treats, how long the treatment takes, and how to prepare for the treatment.
What are the most common types of conditions that radiologists treat?
Certain conditions are treated by interventional radiologists, such as chronic pain attacks, strokes, urinary tract diseases, brain and spinal injuries, fractures, blood vessel blockages, and other problems that require non-invasive treatments. Our interventional radiologist in Areekode helps treat critical health problems through painless procedures.
When should I consider seeing a radiologist?
You should consider seeing an interventional radiologist for several conditions, such as suspected injuries, abnormalities in physical conditions, cancer treatments, chronic pain management, and more. Our interventional radiologist in Areekode knows which symptoms to treat with image-guided, non-invasive procedures.
How should I prepare for my first visit to a radiologist?
You should know why you’re visiting an interventional radiologist and prepare some questions to ask. You also need to carry all the necessary documents to discuss your problems briefly. Our interventional radiologist in Areekode can help you prepare for your first visit.
How does a radiologist decide on a treatment plan?
Interventional radiologists do not decide on a treatment plan alone; they collaborate with other specialists to provide complete patient care. They offer image-guided, noninvasive diagnosis reports that help other surgeons make decisions and prepare treatment plans customised according to the detected diseases.
Will a radiologist help manage side effects during treatment?
The involvement of interventional radiologists doesn’t directly treat side effects as they work with other surgeons and doctors for image-guided reporting. They first monitor a patient's health conditions and provide comprehensive reports to other doctors for better treatment of side effects.
What documents should I carry on my first visit to a radiologist?
Several documents should be carried while visiting an interventional radiologist for the first time. These include past medical records, ongoing medications, and previous radiology treatments. You can discuss these with our interventional radiologist in Areekode to determine which documents are necessary.
How do radiologists decide if surgery is necessary?
Interventional radiologists don’t decide on surgery alone; they collaborate with other doctors to treat patients. They act as crucial information providers to offer image-guided diagnosis reports, but the decision to operate rests with surgeons specialising in the identified condition.
