Allied investigations

The most sophisticated instruments are available for investigating the condition of vital organs. They include:

Video endoscopy

Endoscope makes it possible to examine hollow organs without any major surgery. However certain areas of the small intestine are not conducive to this test. In addition to the latest endoscopes, we at Rakshith also have the Video Endoscope which allows endoscopic examination of the smaller intestine too. A small pill, which is actually a camera, which transmits images to a monitoring device that is fitted on to the patient's waist, is swallowed. This allows accurate examination and instant results.

Mammography

With the increasing incidence of breast cancer a mammogram has become imperative in detecting the disease at the earliest. We have the best equipment in place which allows highly accurate X-Ray photography of the breast. We offer safe and accurate means of early detection of the disease. A timely mammogram can be the difference between cure and otherwise.

At Rakshith we guide you to precise diagnosis to early cure .

Treadmill

Treadmill is absolutely vital in detecting abnormalities and malfunctions of the heart instantly during stress condition. Even minor variances which could lead to life threatening situations are detected. Rakshith has the best equipment in place to monitor the condition of your heart at work so that even the slightest variations which crop up with exercise are recorded.

Echocardiogram

A cardiac investigation is incomplete without an echo which uses ultrasound to examine the heart. While single dimensional images, M-mode allow accurate measurement, sophisticated imaging known as 2-D Echo displays a cross-sectional ‘slice' of the beating heart. An exact study of the condition of the heart is possible.

Rakshith offers the very best equipment for precise results that pave the way for perfect diagnosis and cure.

Pulmonary Function Test

Pulmonary Function Test evaluates the condition of lungs and their efficiency in gas transfer. Inhalation, exhalation and absorption tests give an accurate picture of your lungs and help in the detection of diseases like asthma, bronchitis and emphysema. This test also gauges the effects of exposure to contaminants. Rakshith offers with the support of the best technicians and equipments to get precise results and streamline treatment for your lungs.

Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy is the use of physical means in evaluating, diagnosing and treating a range of diseases, disorders and disabilities. Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation restore mobility.

At Rakshith we have the following facilities for physiotheraphy:

Physiotherapy has become irreplaceable in modern medicine with increasing cases of surgeries, accidents, strokes etc leading to debilitating confinement to bed or wheelchair. Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation offer the only way to restoring mobility. It is known as “orthodox alternative” as it is used in traditional medicine and uses alternative forms of medicine including massage, manipulation, acupuncture, reflex therapy and therapeutic exercise.

At RAKSHITH, the Physiotherapy Unit is located at the First floor providing easy access from the lift. Here, the physiotherapists carefully analyze problems taking a holistic approach, understanding how each separate problem impacts the person's lifestyle at work and at leisure. They not only attend to the problem but also most importantly, spend time with the patient advising them how to overcome the problem from recurring. The moving force in this unit therefore is the staff, whose personal mission is to make, a near-immobile patient to capable of movement.
