In a major technological advancement in healthcare in North Bengal, Sonoscan has introduced the region’s first 384-slice AI-powered CT scanner. Known for its commitment to quality and affordability, Sonoscan has raised the bar in cardiac diagnostics with this cutting-edge technology. Equipped with advanced cardiac CT angiography capabilities, the scanner can detect heart attacks within seconds, offering faster and more accurate diagnosis to patients with cardiovascular problems.

Unrivaled speed and accuracy

The 384-slice CT scanner with artificial intelligence is a game-changer in medical imaging, especially for cardiac patients. Traditional diagnostic methods can take considerable time to identify potential heart problems, but with this advanced scanner, a diagnosis can be made in seconds. The cardiac CT angiography feature allows for high-resolution imaging of the coronary arteries, providing a detailed view of potential blockages or other life-threatening conditions. This technology is especially valuable for emergencies where every second counts.

Comprehensive imaging services

While the 384-slice CT scanner is a big draw, Sonoscan also offers a wide range of advanced diagnostic services. Their facility in Kolkata is equipped with a quiet 3 Tesla MRI machine that contains specialized coils for comprehensive imaging of the joints, breasts, and heart. The device’s ability to perform non-contrast MRI cardiac morphology studies and viability studies increases patient safety and comfort.

Adding to its affordability and commitment to affordable healthcare, the Sonoscan Center in Kolkata offers a routine MRI every Sunday and Thursday for just Rs 3,500 – compared to the market price of Rs 8,000. This unmatched offer provides significant savings for patients seeking high-quality imaging services.

Sonoscan

The leader in healthcare Founded in 1990, Sonoscan started its journey in Malda and has since expanded to three key locations: Kolkata, Malda, and Balurghat. The diagnostic centers are NABL accredited and classified as Class I facilities under the West Bengal Health Scheme (WBHS-2008) while maintaining the highest standards of laboratory practice. From routine bacterial cultures and serological testing to cutting-edge molecular diagnostics such as real-time PCR, Sonoscan provides comprehensive healthcare services that meet international standards.

In addition to its world-class diagnostic services, Sonoscan offers specialized medical treatments at its hospital facility, including neurosurgery, orthopedic surgery, ENT surgery, intensive care, and dialysis. The hospital, equipped with a modern 14-bed dialysis unit and an ultra-modern operating room, provides patients with the highest quality of care in a wide range of medical fields.

Extensions for the future

Over the years, Sonoscan has consolidated its position as a leading diagnostic service provider in Eastern India. After a successful partnership with Malda Medical College under a PPP model with the Government of West Bengal in 2008, Sonoscan expanded and established a hi-tech facility in Kolkata in 2016.

With the introduction of an AI-powered CT scanner, Sonoscan reaffirms its commitment to providing superior healthcare services at affordable prices. With plans to open a new facility in Gangarampur, Sonoscan’s future is set for continued growth, bringing advanced healthcare technology to more communities.
