In addition there are Colour dopplers and Ultrasonograms.

With MRI and Helical CT Scan excellent results are offered and contrast imaging services are routinely carried out by radiologists of repute and experienced technicians.
Ultrasonography, which uses sound waves to image the body, is the imaging modality of choice in obstetrics. Pregnant women undergo routine ultrasonography for evaluation of the foetus, especially foetal growth retardation and malformations.Ultrasound scanning is also an excellent means of evaluating the liver, kidney, thyroid, prostate and the orbit. Colour Doppler studies help in the diagnosis of various vascular diseases.
