Treatment & Procedures
The department of radiology provides imaging services for procedures such as stenting or angioplasty, wherein a catheter is guided into clogged arteries. A small balloon accompanies the catheter to open the artery, thereby allowing blood flow to occur.
Varicose veins are a symptom of weakened veins and valves in the legs. There are one-way valves that keep blood flowing upward from the legs toward the heart. When these valves don’t function properly, blood collects in the legs and pressure is built up. As a result, the veins become large, twisted and weak. Laser ablation treatment is done for this…
A biopsy involves the removal of small tissue samples or cells to diagnose the presence of a disease. This is generally an outpatient procedure and it involves minimal preparation
This is a common condition that is usually the result of atherosclerosis which affects those with scar tissue and cholesterol buildup. Treatment mainly consists of catheter-directed thrombolysis, angioplasty and stenting and catheter assisted thrombectomy.
CT scan is done with the use of X-rays to take pictures of the patient’s body internally.
Fluoroscopy helps get a view of a specific internal region of the body. It uses images that are obtained via an X-ray beam and contrast dye being sent to a visual screen.
Patients that suffer from renal failure or chronic kidney disease will undergo replacement therapy, which is in the form of dialysis. The Interventional Radiology department provides treatment such as AV fistula savage (through angioplasty), central vein angioplasty or stenting, perm catheter placement, peritoneal dialysis (catheter placement).
MRI detects many conditions in the upper and lower regions of the body. It involves a powerful magnetic field that is combined with radio waves to produce images of the body’s internal structures. This includes bones, organs, and soft tissues.
The sudden blockage of major arteries in the lung is caused by blood clots. The lungs can be damaged by these clots. Interventional radiology provides treatment in the form of catheter-directed thrombectomy/thrombolysis.
TIPS is a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt procedure th at is used to treat internal bleeding in the esophagus or stomach, for patients with cirrhosis. Imaging is used during the procedure to connect the portal and hepatic vein in the liver. A metal device known as a stent will hold the connection open, allowing blood flow from the bowel…
This therapy involves the use of cold, hot or chemical agents to treat cancerous tumors. Manipal hospital’s department of radiology specializes in the use of cryotherapy and microwave for tumor ablation.
Uterine fibroid embolization is used to treat fibroid tumors in the uterus. A catheter is steered through an artery to the uterus using fluoroscopy (x-ray imaging). It is a minimally invasive procedure and it is highly effective in pain reduction from fibroid tumors that are generally associated with menstrual bleeding.
If abnormalities are detected in the breast after a mammogram but cannot be physically detected, then a thin write inserted by a needle is used by the doctor to obtain tissue samples for a more accurate diagnosis of a breast mass.
X-rays are used to obtain images of the internal regions of the body. This helps doctors make accurate diagnoses

A specialist will first gather general information about the patient's health, review their medical history, and conduct a physical examination. Based on the findings, further treatment or diagnostic procedures are recommended.
The doctor or physician will discuss your symptoms and prescribe tests for further diagnosis.
Arrive 15-30 minutes early; change into a gown if needed. Most procedures are painless, with some requiring contrast or specific positioning. Technologists ensure comfort throughout.
Most imaging is very safe. X-rays/CT use small amounts of radiation, and MRI uses magnetic fields with no known harm. Contrast reactions are rare; screening is done before administration.
Preparation depends on the exam: fasting, specific clothing, or metal removal. MRI requires implant safety screening. Instructions provided during scheduling.
Most radiology tests are minimally invasive and not painful. In the case of a painful the procedure, the patient may be given local or general anesthesia depending on the procedure involved.
X-rays: 5-10 mins | Ultrasound: 15-30 mins | CT: 10-30 mins | MRI: 30-60 mins. Specialised studies may take longer.
Pregnancy confirmed before X-rays/CT. MRI is generally safe with approval. Ultrasound preferred during pregnancy. Guidance provided for breastfeeding mothers receiving contrast.
Routine studies: 24-48 hours. Emergency cases: preliminary reports within hours. Complete reports are provided to your physician.
Yearly health check-ups will help you avoid facing severe health conditions in the future. We believe that prevention is better than cure. Kindly visit your doctor for a full body checkup at least once a year
