Good treatment starts with a Good diagnosis
The Diagnostics & Tests services at St. Stephen’s Hospital bring together radiology, imaging, pathology, and cardiac and pulmonary testing — all under one roof, in coordination with our clinical departments. Whether you need a routine blood test, an MRI for back pain, or a specialised cardiac scan, our team works to give you accurate results on time, with the diagnostic detail your doctor actually needs.
Reports are issued by qualified radiologists, pathologists, and specialists — not by technicians alone. Where a result is borderline or needs further work-up, your treating doctor is just a corridor away, not a different hospital. That coordination is the real difference.

Test Preparation
Many tests require specific preparation
