The Directorate of Radiology and Imaging at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH) has announced the availability of high-quality CT Coronary Angiography services.
The services have been enabled by the hospital’s new 128-slice CT scanner.
CT Coronary Angiography is a non-invasive imaging test that uses specialized CT images to examine the coronary arteries—the blood vessels that supply blood to the heart.
It helps doctors identify narrowed or blocked arteries and assess blood flow to the heart, supporting accurate diagnosis and effective patient management.
According to MTRH, the service is covered by the Social Health Authority (SHA), thus enhancing access to advanced cardiac diagnostic services for eligible patients.
“The enhancement of this service has been made possible through the National Equipment Support Programme (NESP), a government-supported initiative aimed at strengthening healthcare service delivery through the provision, installation, and maintenance of essential medical equipment,” the Eldoret-based public hospital said.
Through NESP, MTRH continues to benefit from improved access to modern and functional medical equipment, strengthening its diagnostic and treatment capacity, and supporting the efficient delivery of specialized healthcare services.
The hospital further said the availability of CT Coronary Angiography reflects the commitment of the Government, through the Ministry of Health, and the management to strengthening advanced diagnostic services and improving access to quality healthcare.
With the advancenent of this service, MTRH further scales up its capacity to provide modern, quality, and accessible diagnostic care to patients requiring specialized cardiac imaging.
