Ultrasound has proven to be an effective diagnostic tool for a variety of medical, surgical, vascular, musculo-skeletal/ sports medicine, trauma/ road accident cases and in obstetric/ gynecological conditions.
Burhani Hospital’s whole body color Doppler ultrasound department is equipped with 5 state-of-the-art color Doppler machines, with 12 probes of different frequencies. These include probes for echocardiography, vascular Doppler examinations of the larynx, B-scan eye imaging, thyroid, breast, lung (pneumothorax and pulmonary edema), rheumatological diseases, infant brain scans, pyloric stenosis, and congenital dislocation of the hip joint. The department also features a special hockey-shaped high-frequency probe, which is available at very few tertiary care hospitals.
The department is staffed with highly experienced doctors, one of whom has over 35 years of experience in the field of sonography, having scanned more than 500,000 cases and earned a strong reputation in the field. In experienced hands, ultrasound provides a very quick and accurate diagnosis, leading to proper medical and surgical management.
The hospital meets the highest international standards in its reporting system, providing high-quality, properly labeled ultrasound films. The whole-body color Doppler ultrasound department is conveniently located near the hospital’s emergency department, ensuring that FOCUS point-of-care ultrasound and E-FAST (Extended Focused Assessment Sonography in Trauma) can be performed easily in acute conditions. Additionally, portable ultrasound services are available to patients wherever they are located.
