Hi Dr Mechris Mango , good to have you here on this forum, and was wondering whats the state of radiology in Tanzania? How many CT /MR centers, are they mostly in hospitals or indepedant outpatient centers. Is there a practice of Teleradiology there? would be interesting to follow up. thank you. - Vas Metupalle , Lion City Radiology Pte Ltd , vas@lioncityradiology.com
hi Metupalle,radiology in Tanzania is still at its infancy stage,but there is voluminous radiology work,there are about 8 CT scanners at least two 64slice-phillips,three 1.5T MRI machine.most of them are hospital based i think only one is for outpatient.about teleradiology,i hearsd there is one southafrican hospital operating in Tanzania who are outsourcing from India.thanx if you have more questions feel free to ask,have a nicer day.
