Let us just take you all through a used case study of one of our existing hospital customer, A 11 branch hospital chain in Hyderabad which was printing over 7 lakh films per year,
The Problem: They were heavily relying on traditional plastic films to print radiology images from CT, MRI, and X-ray machines. These films:
- Costed them around 3.5 crores of rupees every year
- Generated massive CO₂ emissions of around 300 metric tonnes every year
- Was finding difficult to dispose films safely
- Was creating barriers in reports delivery and operational efficiency
Now imagine this problem across hundreds of hospitals in India. The economic and environmental impact is huge. The Solution – We employed our patented Dr. Dicom’s Digital & Smart Paper Printing, plug-and-play solution that worked with their existing radiology equipment without any equipment changes required.
Results:
- Same diagnostic quality as film
- Up to 65% cost savings i.e. around 2.20 crores in the last financial year
- Reduced up to 280 metric tonnes of Carbon Footprint last year
- Instant delivery of reports and smooth operations throughout department
Major reduction in costs & carbon footprint. No film. Just digital files and smart prints. Let’s eliminate film waste from Indian healthcare—one hospital at a time.
Cost Comparison – Plastic Film vs. Paper Print
| Item | Per Film Cost | Per Paper Print Cost | Cost Reduction |
| P1-( CT/ MRI) 14×17 Plastic Film | ₹98 | ₹40 | up to 60% |
| P2-( XRAY / ULTRASOUND) 8×10 Plastic Film | ₹38 | ₹18 | up to 53% |
Using digital & paper print solution instead of traditional plastic film can reduce imaging costs by up to 60-70 %, without compromising on image quality.
