X-ray, ultrasound and Doppler imaging under one roof — accurate, same-day diagnostic imaging that supports every department in the clinic, from a routine chest X-ray to specialised fertility and pregnancy scans.
The Radiology department at Apollo Clinic Shyamnagar provides imaging that lets your doctor see what a clinical examination alone cannot — a fracture, an organ's internal structure, blood flow through a vessel, or the position of a developing pregnancy. Imaging is often the step that turns a suspected diagnosis into a confirmed one, and in many cases changes the treatment plan entirely.
Every scan is performed by trained radiology staff and reviewed for the specific question your doctor is trying to answer, so the imaging is matched to your symptoms rather than being a generic scan. Reports are shared directly with your treating doctor, so results feed straight into your consultation.
Because radiology sits within a multispeciality clinic, findings are read alongside your full clinical picture and can trigger an immediate referral to the relevant department — cardiology, urology, obstetrics and gynaecology, or general medicine — without you having to coordinate that yourself.
Our radiology department offers the following categories of imaging:
| Scan | What It Is Used For |
|---|---|
| Chest X-ray | Evaluates the lungs and heart; used for cough, breathlessness, chest infection, and as part of routine and pre-surgical screening |
| Bone X-rays | Detects fractures, dislocations, infections and joint conditions following injury or persistent bone and joint pain |
| Fluoroscopy | Continuous, real-time X-ray imaging — for example a barium swallow — used to evaluate gastrointestinal issues such as swallowing difficulty or suspected blockage |
| Scan | What It Is Used For |
|---|---|
| Obstetric Ultrasound | Monitors fetal development, growth and well-being at different stages of pregnancy |
| Abdominal Ultrasound | Checks organs such as the liver, kidneys and gallbladder for stones, swelling, cysts or structural abnormalities |
| Doppler Ultrasound | Evaluates blood flow in veins and arteries, used to detect blockages, clots and circulation problems |
| HSG (Hysterosalpingography) | An X-ray procedure that checks the shape of the uterus and whether the fallopian tubes are open, commonly used in fertility evaluation |
| SIS (Saline Infusion Sonohysterography) | An ultrasound procedure using saline to get a clearer view inside the uterus, used to evaluate abnormal bleeding, polyps or fibroids |
X-Ray & Ultrasound Under One RoofGeneral radiography, abdominal and obstetric ultrasound, Doppler studies and fertility-related imaging are all available in the same building. | Results Read in Clinical ContextScans are ordered and interpreted by your treating doctor, so findings are followed up immediately rather than left for you to interpret alone. | |
Pregnancy & Fertility ImagingObstetric ultrasound, HSG and SIS support pregnancy monitoring and fertility evaluation without needing to travel to a separate imaging centre. | Multispeciality IntegrationImaging results connect directly to consultations with cardiology, urology, general medicine and other departments at the clinic — one record, one visit. | |
It depends on the type. An abdominal ultrasound (liver, gallbladder, kidneys) usually requires 6–8 hours of fasting for a clear view, since food and gas can obscure the organs. Obstetric and most other ultrasounds do not need fasting — reception will confirm what applies to your specific scan when you book.
A standard X-ray uses a very low dose of radiation and is considered safe for diagnostic use in adults. Our staff follow standard shielding and dosage protocols, and will always ask about pregnancy before performing an X-ray, since it is generally avoided during pregnancy unless clinically necessary.
Both are used in fertility evaluation but check different things. HSG is an X-ray-based procedure that specifically checks whether the fallopian tubes are open. SIS is an ultrasound-based procedure that gives a clearer view of the inside of the uterus itself, useful for detecting polyps or fibroids. Your doctor will advise which one — or both — is right for your situation.
Most patients experience mild cramping, similar to menstrual cramps, during and briefly after the procedure. Taking a pain reliever beforehand, as advised by your doctor, usually helps. Both procedures are done as outpatient tests and do not require anaesthesia in most cases.
Most X-ray and ultrasound reports are ready the same day, often within the same visit for straightforward scans. Procedures such as HSG or SIS, and any scan needing specialist review, may take a little longer — you will be told the expected timeline at the time of your scan.
