The CT Angiography facility also contains the feature of CAT scan-based Stress Myocardial Perfusion Imaging (CT MPI)
Delhi-based Sanjeevan Hospital inaugurated the state-of-the-art Coronary CT Angiography facility with an advanced CT MPI facility.
The CT Angiography facility while being the first of its kind in the area also contains the feature of CAT scan-based Stress Myocardial Perfusion Imaging (CT MPI), which is the first in the city of Delhi to ensure patients have access to the most advanced diagnostic tools for cardiac evaluation.
Stress myocardial perfusion CT (MPICT) is performed by acquiring a series of CT images after injection of a bolus of contrast medium during pharmacological hyperemia, similar to the perfusion imaging technique by MRI or PET.

IPS Officer Robin Hibu, who graced the inauguration ceremony, commended Sanjeevan Hospital's commitment to enhancing healthcare facilities in the Old Delhi area. He stated, "The introduction of coronary CT Angiography is a significant step towards improving healthcare facilities in this region. It's delightful to see that the people of the walled city will get this premium specialised service right near their doorsteps.”
Dr Prem Aggarwal, MD, Sanjeevan Hospital, stated "We are proud to be the first hospital in Old Delhi to offer Coronary CT Angiography which is the first diagnostic choice for chest pain assessment. Sanjeevan Hospital is dedicated to ensuring that our patients have access to the most advanced medical technologies and diagnostic tools.”
