Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals. New Delhi

Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals in Delhi is the largest hospital center in the Apollo network and the first to receive Joint Commission International USA Accreditation. It is the only JCI accredited institution in North India. On top of this impressive achievement Indraprastha Apollo treats nearly 200,000 patients a year. Almost 10,000 patients a year travel internationally to be treated at Indraprastha Apollo because of its world wide reputation of quality care. It was the first hospital in the Indian continent to perform a successful liver / kidney transplant and has performed 424 kidney transplants and 53 liver transplants.

A facility as large as Indraprastha invokes thoughts of a cold, institutional environment, but its architecture and layout are as stunning as its accreditations. The hospital is decadently modern and bright with a multitude of arched and domed skylights and atriums. It carries the flavor of a posh hotel instead of a drab surgical center.

70% of Apollo doctors have trained, studied, or worked in Western Hospitals. Apollo hospitals are affiliated with such prestigious institutions as the Royal College of Surgeons and Physicians, the American Heart Association, and the Cornell Medical Center. It is no wonder than that Apollo hospitals are among the preferred destinations for international patients.

Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals, New Delhi brings sophisticated imaging technology to India with the introduction of the state-of-the art Toshiba Acquilon 64 row detector CT. These new modalities have revolutionized cross sectional imaging with exquisitely detailed multiplanar depiction of human anatomy.

64 -slice data acquisition in cardiac scans implies that the entire heart can be covered in a few heart beats. This enables an optimal match of the heart rhythm with the data acquisition providing the highest temporal resolution.

High resolution 2D, 3D and 4D images of all body parts are now possible with reduced scan times and greater patient comfort. Non- invasive cardiac imaging and angiograms, virtual bronchoscopy and colonoscopy, angioscopy, articular cartilage imaging, functional imaging and neuronal tractography are only some of the previously unattainable modern day imaging techniques. With introduction of these modalities and medical imaging in this part of the world, Apollo is set to scale new heights with a quantum leap in the field of diagnostic and interventional radiology.

Indraprastha Apollo is at the forefront of medical technology and expertise and provides a complete range of the latest diagnostic, medical and surgical facilities for the care of its patients.
