FAQs

We address some of the most commonly asked questions and doubts about the facts and treatments concerning fertility in men and women.

What is the duration of an x-ray procedure?

The duration of an x-ray or any imaging procedure depends on the type of imaging exam performed. Most x-ray procedures do not take more than fifteen minutes. However, contrast-related procedures can take up to half an hour and sometimes more.

Why is it not advisable to eat or drink anything before an x-ray or imaging procedure?

Some scans and imaging procedures are better performed on an empty stomach as the procedure may require a contrast. For such circumstances, patients are advised to remain on an empty stomach. However, this instruction does not apply to general x-rays of the spine, limbs, and chest.

What is an X-ray?

X-ray is one of the oldest and the most widely used procedures for medical imaging. It is a non-invasive, painless diagnostic procedure that facilitates the easy diagnosis of many medical conditions. At Krishna Hospital, we are equipped with advanced digital x-ray machines that produce crystal clear images for reliable diagnosis.

What is an Ultrasound scan?

An ultrasound scan uses high-frequency sounds that travel freely through fluids and soft tissues in the body and creates images of the internal body structures. This imaging technique is used to:

  • Monitor the growth of the fetus
  • Detect abnormalities of the heart
  • Diagnose problems in all major organs
  • Detect the presence of aneurysms

What is a CT scan?

A Computerised Tomography (CT) scan uses rotating x-rays and computers to provide cross-sectional body images. The technology provides highly- detailed images of the tissues, blood vessels, organs and bones. The radiologist uses these images to diagnose diseases, disorders and other medical conditions.

What is an MRI scan?

MRI stands for Magnetic Resonance Imaging. This imaging technique uses radio waves and a strong magnetic field to produce detailed images of your internal body structure. MRI scans can create clear pictures of your joints, muscles, bone marrow, blood vessels, nerves, and other parts of your body.

What is a DEXA scan?

DEXA stands for Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry. It is currently the most widely used imaging method to determine bone mineral density. DEXA scanning is used to assess the risk of osteoporosis and the possibility of fractures due to osteoporosis. It is a painless and non-invasive imaging technique.

What is the role of a Radiologist?

During a diagnostic examination, a technologist conducts the procedure, and a radiologist interprets the images. They may also recommend further tests, scans, and treatments, if necessary. Furthermore, radiologists use radiation to treat diseases like cancer. They may also perform minimally invasive image-guided surgeries. Many physicians rely on radiologists to correlate medical images and test results.

What is the ideal clothing one should wear for an imaging exam?

MRI stands for Magnetic Resonance Imaging. This imaging technique uses radio waves and a strong magnetic field to produce detailed images of your internal body structure. MRI scans can create clear pictures of your joints, muscles, bone marrow, blood vessels, nerves, and other parts of your body.

Is it okay to bring my children to my imaging appointment?

MRI stands for Magnetic Resonance Imaging. This imaging technique uses radio waves and a strong magnetic field to produce detailed images of your internal body structure. MRI scans can create clear pictures of your joints, muscles, bone marrow, blood vessels, nerves, and other parts of your body.
