networks (filmless radiology).
The department is well equipped with state of the art
equipment ranging from basic digital radiography
units to sophisticated CT, MRI and angiography
suites. The students are posted and trained to
operate all these equipment, with classes taken by
dedicated teachers (radiographers, radiologists,
physicists, sometimes doctors of other specialties).
The department has 144 radiographers, 118
radiologists and 42 student radiographers.

Diploma in Hospital Sterilisation
Technology
(Awarded by the Christian Medical College Vellore
Association)
All hospitals, nursing homes and clinics providing
diagnostic, therapeutic and surgical services require
sterile instruments, articles and materials. The
provision of sterile supplies is a comprehensive
process involving cleaning, inspecting, packing,
appropriate sterilization, safe storage and timely
supply and is carried out by a Central Sterile Supply
Department (CSSD), staffed by technicians trained to
carry out these activities. This course aims to provide
the knowledge and practical training required for a
Hospital Sterilization Technician capable of running a
central sterile supply or operation theatre sterile
supply service.
Keeping in mind the above objective, the syllabus of
this two-year course, divided into four semesters,
consists of lectures and practical hands-on training in
sterilization techniques. The final semester teaches
workplace safety, legal and ethical issues, regulatory
requirements, protocols and other administrative
skills to complement the theoretical and practical
knowledge required to function as a competent
sterilization technician. Examinations, both theory
and practical, will be conducted at the end of each
year. A six-month internship will provide exposure to
work in smaller setups as well. Research during the
course is encouraged.
After completion of the diploma in Hospital
Sterilization Technology, it is expected that the
candidate will be suitable for employment in a central
sterile supply department or a theatre sterile supply
unit, in health care organisations in India and
overseas. The diploma is awarded by the Christian
Medical College Vellore Association.
Eligibility: Pass at (10+2) level in science with Physics,
Chemistry, and Biology or Botany/Zoology.
