Bengaluru-based Manipal Hospitals has announced the partnership with an established hospital campus, Queen Elizabeth University Hospital (QEUH) in Glasgow, Scotland. 

This initiative will provide more academic opportunities for interventional radiologists from Manipal Hospitals which will help them learn advanced techniques and high-end procedures. Similarly, trainees from QEUH, Glasgow, will be able to spend time learning the new techniques adopted by the doctors in Manipal Hospitals.

With this strategic partnership, Manipal Hospitals and QEUH will create new avenues for academic collaboration, innovation, and excellence in Interventional Radiology, benefiting patients and healthcare professionals alike.

Interventional Radiology (IR) is a rapidly growing medical specialty that treats complex diseases, such as uterine fibroids, enlarged prostate, dialysis access, thyroid nodules, hemoptysis (coughing up blood), varicose veins in the legs, liver and kidney cancers, pelvic congestion syndrome, through minimally-invasive methods. This initiative can be a stepping stone to the highest possible quality care and advancement in the treatment methods for patients in India.
