Radiology 

Welcome to the Dubai Hospital Radiology Department’s home page for patient education. Patient education is more important today than ever before. In fact, it is the fundamental aspect of patient care as it helps physicians gain patient’s cooperation and make the radiology procedure as smooth as possible. Generally, a patient arrives at the radiology department without any information, or with basic information, about X-ray examinations. This site gives a detailed description of preparations, purposes, equipment used, approximate procedural durations and follow-up care if necessary when the procedure is completed.
