Radiology

Radiology is a medical department using imaging techniques like X-Ray, Ultrasound, CT, MRI, Mammography, PET CT & MRI, SPECT CT, and DSA to diagnose and treat diseases. The department should be easily accessible for patients and offer protection from radiation exposure. Each imaging modality requires specific spaces, including reception, registration, reporting, storage, and waiting areas. PET CT/MRI rooms need proper shielding due to nuclear isotopes. The design should consider furnishings, décor, lighting, HVAC, ventilation, and electrical points. Attention to safety, signage, and wayfinding is essential to ensure a well-equipped and efficient radiology department.
