Bachelor in Medical Radio Imaging Technology (BMRIT)

Medical Imaging known as Radiography or Radiology is the Technique concerned with operating radio imaging Machine such as X-ray, C.T. Scan, MRI and Ultrasound to create images of human body for clinical purposes or medical science. It also involves treatment of cancers and tumors with radiation.

Radiologic technology modalities (or specialties) Include.

• Diagnostic Radiography deals with examination of internal organs, bones, Cavities and foreign objects; includes cardiovascular imaging and interventional radiography.
• Sonography uses high frequency sound and is used in: obstetrics (including fetal monitoring throughout pregnancy), abdominal, Pediatrics, Cardiac, Vascular and musculo-skeletal region imaging.
• Fluoroscopy live motion radiography (Consant radiation) usually used to visualize the digestive system; monitor the administration of contrast agents to highlight vessels and organs or to help position devices within the body.
• CT (Computed Tomography) which provides cross-sectional views (slices) of the body; can also reconstruct additional images from those taken to provide more information in either 2D or 3-D.
• MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) builds a 2-D and 3-D map of different tissue types within the body.
• Nuclear Medicine uses radioactive tracers which can be administered to examine how the body and organs function, for example the Kidney or heart.
• Radiotherapy uses radiation to shrink, and sometimes eradicate, cancerous cells/ growths in and on the body.
• Mammography use low dose x-ray systems to produce images of human mammary glands.

Infrastructure

X-ray, fluoroscopy, Mammography, Ultrasound, CT scan and MRI which is inseparable part of students practical thus they get real time experience of functioning of these equipments.
