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. The hospital brings
together some of the most talented medical professionals in the country
