GIMS NOIDA LAUNCHES ADVANCED DEXA SCAN AND PHYSIOTHERAPY SYSTEMS
GIMS NOIDA– The Government Institute of Medical Sciences (GIMS), Greater Noida, is taking a major step towards updating public health by introducing a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan, with an advanced physiotherapy system. This medical innovation aims to deliver more accurate bone assessments and a complete recovery solution for patients and athletes, especially sports-related injuries across Delhi-NCR.
The initiative was supported by HCL Foundation under the CSR initiative. This project enhances the GIMS diagnostic accuracy and recovery in thousands of patients across Delhi.
GIMS NOIDA- Boosting Bone Health With DEXA:
According to Brig. (Dr) Rakesh K Gupta, Director of GIMS, DEXA scan is an excellent innovation made for measuring bone mineral density (BMD), which is crucial for detecting early osteoporosis, for monitoring recovery in athletes, and any other sort of bone loss.
This outstanding innovation benefits more than 30,000 patients annually from Noida, Greater Noida, and nearby districts, said by Gupta.
Advanced Physiotherapy For Faster Recovery:
This advanced physiotherapy setup for fast recovery includes:
- For deep tissue healing, high-energy inductive therapy is used.
- To reduce swelling and improve blood circulation, Intermittent compression therapy is used.
- For musculoskeletal recovery and neurological rehabilitation, the Computerized balance training system is used.
- For effective pain relief and faster recovery, high-power laser therapy is used.
A Step Forward In Sports Medicine:
Specialists say the combination of next-gen physiotherapy and DEXA scanning will help to enhance muscle recovery, prevent fractures, and enhance sports performance.
With these advancements, GIMS became the first public institute in the region to integrate rehabilitation technology and bone health.
