The Universitas Sumatera Utara Dental and Oral Hospital (RSGM USU) held an operational coordination meeting for its Radiology Unit on Thursday, April 9, 2026, in the RSGM USU meeting room. The meeting was led directly by RSGM USU Director drg. Rini Octavia Nasution, M.Kes., Sp.Perio., Subsp.RPID(K) and attended by hospital leaders, division heads, the radiology team, and radiographers. This meeting marked an important step in strengthening radiology services so they become more professional, accurate, and patient-safety oriented.
The discussion covered several key issues to optimize radiology services, including facility readiness, equipment availability, routine equipment calibration according to safety standards, the designation of a Radiation Protection Officer (PPR), and other operational matters related to daily radiology services. Through this coordination, RSGM USU reaffirmed its commitment to building strong inter-unit synergy and continuously improving the quality of dental and oral healthcare services.
For people looking for dental X-ray services in Medan, this kind of strengthening is highly relevant. On its official website, RSGM USU explains that the Radiology Unit is one of its medical support installations, providing radiology examinations that produce images to assist examination and diagnosis. The official facilities page also lists Radiology as part of the hospital’s supporting services.
Radiology readiness also directly benefits patients because on the General Dentistry/UPU service page, RSGM USU states that dentists work together with the radiology installation and related departments in delivering care. This means patients who need further examination can access a more integrated service flow within one dental and oral hospital.
For patients who want to estimate examination costs in advance, RSGM USU also publishes its official radiology tariffs. The tariff page lists services such as Periapical Radiology at Rp175,000, Panoramic at Rp350,000, Cephalometry at Rp450,000, and CBCT at Rp1,000,000. This transparency helps patients plan their care, especially those who need evaluation for cavities, jaw conditions, orthodontic planning, or other diagnostic support.
For people seeking a dental hospital in Medan with more complete services, RSGM USU is also described as a Type C hospital that supports healthcare services, education, and research, with primary and specialist dental services backed by medical support units such as pharmacy, radiology, and a sterilization center. This allows patients to receive not only consultations, but also more comprehensive examination and follow-up care in one place.
To make visits easier to plan, patients can check the official doctor schedule on the RSGM USU website. For contact information, official USU channels list the address as Jl. Alumni No. 2, Padang Bulan, Medan Baru, Medan, North Sumatra 20155, email rsgm@usu.ac.id. Several official RSGM USU pages also display +62 857-9125-9191 for consultations or appointments.
Through this radiology operational coordination meeting, RSGM USU shows that improving patient care is built not only from the clinical side, but also from equipment readiness, safety, and strong internal coordination. For patients, this is another strong reason to choose RSGM USU as a more complete, organized, and diagnosis-ready destination for dental and oral care in Medan.
