About the Department

The Department of Clinical Radiology and Imaging Services is dedicated to training and mentoring medical students in the area of diagnostic radiology. The primary objective is ensuring students can request appropriate imaging investigations and master acquisition and interpretation of various radiological modalities while safely using ionizing and non-ionizing radiation.

Clinical rotations take place at Kiambu and Mama Lucy Kibaki Level 5 hospitals. The department plans to introduce a Higher Diploma in Sonography and a Masters of Medicine in Diagnostic Radiology in future.
