  • Screening Sono-Mammography for early breast disease detection.

4) Interventional Radiology & Cardiac Catheterization Labs – 1st Floor (Near CCU)

Home to two state-of-the-art Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) Labs supporting neurovascular, cardiac, vascular, and oncologic interventions.

Key Systems:

Philips Azurion 7 B20/15 Bi-Plane DSA Suite – Dedicated for neurovascular and cardiac interventions, offering biplane 3D rotational imaging.

• Philips Azurion 7 M12 Monoplane DSA Suite – Used for vascular, oncologic, and peripheral procedures, including embolization, angioplasty, stenting, TACE, RFA, TIPS, and complex drainages.

Both suites are integrated with CT and MRI data for multimodality planning, providing safe, precise, and minimally invasive treatments with faster recovery times.

Technology & Integration

• RIS–PACS Platform: Complete digital workflow, from scheduling and acquisition to archiving and remote reporting.
• AI-Enabled Imaging: Assists in image reconstruction, analysis, and workflow optimization for improved accuracy.
• Low-Dose, High-Quality Protocols: Prioritizing patient safety across all age groups, including paediatrics.
• EMR Integration: Seamless linkage with hospital information systems for unified patient care.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Most Yashoda Institute of Radiodiagnosis & Interventional Radiology procedures are covered under health insurance. The hospital billing team will help check your coverage and guide you through the process.

You can be referred by your physician or specialist, or you may contact the Interventional Radiology team directly. They will review your case and recommend the most suitable treatment.

Recovery times vary, but many individuals resume light activities within 24–48 hours. More complex procedures may require a slightly longer rest period.

Most Yashoda Institute of Radiodiagnosis & Interventional Radiology procedures require only local anaesthesia with sedation. General anaesthesia is used only for complex procedures or when necessary for comfort.

Preparation depends on the procedure. It may involve fasting for a few hours, stopping certain medications, or having blood tests. The IR team will provide a personalised pre-procedure checklist.

Yes. Interventional Radiology is generally safe and has a lower complication rate compared to more invasive treatments. All procedures are performed by highly trained interventional radiologists using advanced imaging technology. Risks vary depending on the procedure and overall health, and these are discussed in detail beforehand.

Very small incisions (often just a needle puncture)

Less pain and minimal scarring

Shorter hospital stay

Faster recovery and return to daily activities

Lower risk of infection and complications

Most Yashoda Institute of Radiodiagnosis & Interventional Radiology procedures involve inserting a thin catheter or needle through the skin, guided precisely to the target area using imaging. Local anaesthesia and mild sedation are usually used, so individuals remain awake but comfortable.

IR can manage a wide range of conditions, including:

Stroke (mechanical thrombectomy, carotid stenting

Brain aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations (coiling, embolisation)

Peripheral artery disease and varicose veins

Tumours in the liver, kidney, lung, or bone (chemoembolisation, ablation)

Spine and bone pain (vertebroplasty, nerve blocks)

Biliary and urinary obstructions (drainage, stenting)

Uterine fibroids, enlarged prostate, and more

Yashoda Institute of Radiodiagnosis & Interventional Radiology is a specialised branch of medicine that uses imaging techniques such as X-ray, ultrasound, CT, or MRI to perform minimally invasive procedures. These often replace traditional surgery, allowing for faster recovery, less pain, and fewer complications.
