Neuroradiology is a subspecialty of radiology focusing on the diagnosis and characterization of abnormalities of the central and peripheral Nervous system, Spine, Head and Neck using Neuroimaging techniques. Primary imaging modalities include digital X-ray, computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).
Neuroimaging has become a well-established super specialty in Radiology. The recent developments in advanced Neuroimaging techniques have gained great importance in the management of various Neurological and Neurosurgical cases. At Indo American Hospital, we provide the best services in Neuroradiology, with highly-specialized and experienced doctors and technicians.

Procedures like CT Angio are also done at the Radiology department.
MRI
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging (NMRI), or Magnetic Resonance Tomography(MRT) is a medical imaging technique used in Radiology to investigate the anatomy and physiology of the body in both health and disease. MRI scanners use strong magnetic fields and radio waves to form images of the body. The technique is widely used in hospitals for medical diagnosis, staging of disease and for follow-up without exposure to ionizing radiation.
