Diagnostic Services

The Department of Nuclear Medicine at Sir H. N. Reliance Foundation Hospital and Research Centre offers a wide range of services, including Diagnostic Nuclear Imaging and Targeted Radionuclide Therapies. This unique state-of-the-art Molecular Imaging facility in Mumbai has best-in-class infrastructure with state-of-the-art nuclear medicine equipment, led by a team of experienced Nuclear Medicine specialists - for precise diagnoses and treatment, which is the philosophy of our institute.

We envision a transformative approach to healthcare that moves beyond traditional diagnostics to a more personalised model of medical care.

Through advances in the field of medicine, we can now examine not only the structural details of organs via radiological scans, but also their functions and changes happening due to disease in real-time, via Functional Imaging techniques in Nuclear Medicine.

Imaging the molecular processes within organs and tissues allows precise understanding of the metabolic activity, receptor expression, changes in blood flow, detection of malignant disease, and various other pathological processes via PET-CT and Gamma camera scans. These functional imaging changes are unique to each patient. This helps transform ‘Medical Care’ to ‘Personalized Medical Care’ by allowing precise diagnosis and hence direction towards the appropriate treatment – leading to improved outcomes for our patients.

Our Nuclear Medicine Specialists deliver world-class services focused on improving diagnostic results.

The department is equipped with best in class Imaging devices - with highest sensitivity and resolution.

The dedicated team ensure best clinical results as well as patient comfort and experience at every step.

The department is thoughtfully designed for ergonomic efficiency, following a patient-centred workflow to ensure a smooth and welcoming process for all patients.

Our Technology

1. Siemens Biograph mCT Flow PET-CT

This hybrid PET/CT system at out department supports high levels of productivity with Time of Flight (TOF) technology and an intelligent imaging platform. The high resolution and high contrast definition of PET images with Time of Flight technology allows excellent delineation of even small tumors and capturing of precise anatomical detail.

The inbuilt hybrid CT system features a 40-slice CT configuration, surpassing the standard 16-slice PET/CT scanners commonly available.

This advanced capability allows for high quality CT imaging alongside PET acquisitions, providing faster scan times, and minimizing patient radiation exposure, all while maintaining exceptional image quality.

2. Siemens Symbia Pro-specta Q3

We have an advanced, integrated, fully automated high definition SPECT-CT gamma camera with a 32-slice diagnostic CT at our department.

This Gamma Camera boasts the best-in-class image quality, with industry-leading sensitivity, delivering high-resolution images at a minimum dose and maximum speed.

IQ-SPECT - Special Feature - For Cardiac scans

The Gamma camera at Sir HN Reliance Foundation hospital has advanced IQ-SPECT technology - for dedicated imaging of heart. It provides high quality Myocardial Perfusion Imaging (MPI). The special converging collimators along with special imaging processing enhances cardiac imaging, providing superior clarity at lesser dose of radiation, and lesser time - leading to better patient safety and higher patient comfort.

3. High Dose Radionuclide Therapy ward:

We have a 2-bedded High-Dose Therapy ward for our Targeted Radionuclide Therapy patients

After some therapies like high dose I131 therapy, patients need to be admitted in special rooms for the sake of Isolation for Radiation protection purpose. We ensure that our patients receive careful monitoring, while ensuring their comfort and safety. Each room is designed to provide a comfortable and spacious stay, featuring ample lighting and a dedicated bathroom. The rooms are constructed in full compliance with international radiation safety standards and have received certification from Atomic Energy Regulatory Board (AERB).
