Radio Screening Package VI
Understanding Radio Screening Package VI
What is Radio Screening Package VI?
The Radio Screening Package VI is a comprehensive set of radiology tests that provide a thorough assessment of your overall health and help detect potential risks early. This package includes a series of essential tests such as a Whole Abdomen Ultrasound, providing detailed images of abdominal organs like the liver, kidneys, and pancreas to detect any abnormalities; Electrocardiography (ECG) measures the real-time electrical activity of the heart, helping to identify arrhythmias or heart disease; Treadmill Test (TMT) assesses your heart’s response to physical exertion, helping identify hidden heart conditions; Pulmonary Function Tests (PFTs) evaluate lung capacity, providing insights into your respiratory health; and X-Ray Chest PA View provides an image of your lungs and chest, aiding in the detection of respiratory issues or infections.
Getting tested with Radio Screening Package VI ensures early detection of potential health issues, proactive health monitoring, and provides a holistic assessment of your overall well-being.
Disclaimer: You must visit your nearest Tata 1mg partnered lab facility for radiology tests.
What does Radio Screening Package VI measure?
Contains 5 testsUltrasound Whole Abdomen
The Ultrasound Whole Abdomen scan examines for size, shape, and motion of your stomach organs. It is able to demonstrate issues such as stones, cysts, or tumors. It is also useful in finding swelling, infection, or fluid accumulation in the belly (abdominal) area. The scan indicates whether any blood vessels in the belly are blocked or dilated. In addition, it allows physicians/doctors to check how well blood is circulating through your organs, which enables them to diagnose conditions such as liver disease, kidney issues, or other abdominal conditions.
The USG whole abdomen scan is accomplished with a specialized machine that contains a small handheld tool called a transducer. Prior to conducting the scan, the doctor or technician will put a special gel on your abdomen. This gel smooths the passage of the sound waves into your body and enhances the clarity of the images. This transducer is then placed on your abdomen. It transmits sound waves into your body, and when they reflect back, the machine converts them into images of the organs. Doctor uses these images to determine what is happening inside and to arrange for any treatment you should have.

Electrocardiography at Center
The Electrocardiography at Center test is a diagnostic tool used to measure the electrical activity of the heart. This test provides a detailed recording of the heart's electrical impulses, which are crucial for its rhythm and function. By capturing the heart's electrical signals, the ECG test can identify various conditions affecting heart health, such as arrhythmias, heart attacks, and other cardiac abnormalities.
The ECG machine consists of a series of electrodes attached to the skin at specific locations on the chest, arms, and legs. These electrodes sense the electrical impulses produced by the heart as it beats. The impulses are then transmitted to the ECG machine, which records them as a waveform on a computer or paper printout. This waveform represents the heart's electrical activity over time, allowing for the analysis of the heart's rhythm, rate, and electrical conduction.
Doctors examine the ECG trace to diagnose heart conditions and determine appropriate treatments. By evaluating the size and timing of each electrical impulse, doctors can detect issues such as irregular heartbeats, heart muscle damage, and other cardiovascular problems.

Treadmill Test
The Treadmill Test evaluates various important aspects of cardiovascular function during physical exertion. Primarily, the TMT assesses how well the heart responds to physical stress by observing alterations in heart rate, blood pressure, and electrical activity (ECG) throughout the test. These observations are particularly useful in determining the heart's ability to pump oxygenated blood to the body during heightened activity. The test also assesses exercise tolerance and detects any abnormality in heart rhythm. It can detect signs of reduced blood flow to the heart muscles, which could be an indication of coronary artery disease or other cardiovascular diseases. By monitoring these parameters, doctors can make informed decisions about the individual’s cardiac status. Based on test results, they can prescribe the proper treatment or life-style changes.

X - Ray Chest PA View
The X - Ray Chest PA View measures several parameters of the chest's inner structures, such as the size, shape, and location of the heart, lungs, and surrounding structures. It can reveal abnormalities like fluid in the lungs, infection, tumors, or alteration of the diaphragm. This diagnostic scan assesses the overall health of the respiratory and cardiovascular system. It allows doctors to diagnose infections like pneumonia, tuberculosis, or chronic lung diseases, as well as heart enlargement or chest trauma
