SRINAGAR,\u202fDECEMBER\u00a0\u202f05: The Government Medical College (GMC) Srinagar and its associated hospitals (SMHS\/SSH) and other partner facilities\u00a0 have successfully maintained uninterrupted diagnostic services over the past two days despite the scheduled shutdown of the MRI unit at Shireen\u202fBagh.<\/p>\n
During the 48 hour period, a total of 67 MRI scans and 220 CT scans were completed across the network, ensuring that patients who required imaging continued to receive care without delay.<\/p>\n
The MRI, as per an official statement issued on Friday, at Shireen\u202fBagh was taken offline on 4\u202fDecember\u202f2025\u00a0for an urgent de\u2011icing and repair procedure. A routine inspection had revealed ice buildup in the magnet\u2019s venting system, which could have led to a helium leak and posed a safety risk to patients and staff. Prompt maintenance is essential to restore the unit to optimal performance and guarantee long\u2011term safety.<\/p>\n
Logistic support, including patient transport and technical staff, was mobilised to move individuals whose scans were scheduled at Shireen\u202fBagh to other GMC\u202fSrinagar facilities, allowing the workflow to continue smoothly.<\/p>\n
The hospital administration thanks patients, staff, and partner institutions for their cooperation and reaffirms its commitment to maintaining seamless diagnostic services throughout the maintenance period and beyond.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
