The general radiography procedures inclusive of IVP and Flouro are carried out on Computed Radiography System (CR) and Digital Retrofit (DR) which has minimized the patient waiting time, radiation dose, report turnaround time, film rejection rates and film loss. It provides additional facility for simultaneous viewing of images by multiple users. Department of Radiology is using VRS (Voice Recognition System) to transcribe radiology reports which helps in decreasing report turnaround time and increase patient satisfaction with quality reporting. All of this has resulted in increased throughput and enhanced quality of patient care.
