• High-Speed Computed Tomography (Multi-Slice CT Scan): This advanced CT scanner rapidly captures detailed cross-sectional images of the body, enabling quick and precise diagnosis of injuries and illnesses. 

• Ultrasound Machine (2D and 4D): The ultrasound machine uses sound waves to create real-time images, facilitating various medical evaluations, including pregnancy monitoring and abdominal assessments. 

• Digital Mammography and 3D System: This advanced mammography system offers clearer breast images, helping in the early detection and diagnosis of breast cancer. 

• X-ray C-Arm: The mobile X-ray C-arm enables real-time imaging during surgical procedures, ensuring accuracy and safety.  

ENT and Gastrointestinal Diagnostics: 

• Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) Diagnostic Equipment: Specialized equipment for diagnosing and treating conditions related to the ear, nose, and throat. 

• Cervical Cancer Detector (Colposcopy): A colposcopy machine assists in the examination of cervical tissues for early detection and management of cervical cancer. 

• Endoscopic and Intra-Abdominal Surgery Equipment (ERCP, LC): Advanced endoscopic tools for examining and treating gastrointestinal conditions. 

• Colonoscopy Video System: High-definition video system for detailed visualization during colonoscopy procedures.

Renal Care: 

Dialysis Machine (Hemodialysis): Hemodialysis machines efficiently remove waste products and excess fluids from the blood for patients with kidney failure. 

Surgical and Medical Devices: 

• Phacoemulsifier (Phacoemulsification): Used in cataract surgeries, the phacoemulsifier uses ultrasonic waves to break up and remove cataract-damaged lenses. 

• Operating Microscope: Precision microscope for intricate surgical procedures. 

• Electrolytic Lithotripsy (ESWL): Non-invasive device to break down kidney stones using high-energy shock waves. 

• Nerve Monitoring Device (Nim-Response): Used during surgeries to monitor nerve function and prevent nerve damage. 

• Laser Machine (Laser Fine Scan): Laser technology for various medical treatments, such as skin rejuvenation and surgical procedures. 

• Ultraviolet Light (Narrow Band UVB): Used in dermatological treatments, such as psoriasis management. 

• Lung Function Test Machine (Spirometer): Assesses lung capacity and function for respiratory diagnosis and management. 

Cardiac and Neurological Evaluation: 

• Visual Field Detector: Measures visual field defects for neurological and ophthalmological evaluations. 

• Sleep Monitor (Sleep Lab): Used for sleep studies to diagnose sleep disorders and related conditions. 

• Radiofrequency Snoring Device: Treats snoring and sleep apnea using radiofrequency technology. 

• Ultrasound Heart Monitor (Echocardiogram): Provides detailed images of the heart for cardiac assessments. 

• ECG Machine 24 Hours (Holter Monitor): Portable device for continuous ECG monitoring over 24 hours. 

• Brain Wave Machine (Electroencephalography): Measures brain electrical activity for neurological assessments. 

Vascular and Musculoskeletal Evaluations: 

• Arteriosclerosis Detector (Ankle-Brachial Index): Assesses arterial health and blood flow in the limbs. 

• FibroScan: Non-invasive device for assessing liver fibrosis and steatosis.
