Dr. Harsh Mahajan is a pioneer in the eld of
radiology and imaging in India. After doing a
prestigious fellowship in MRI from M.D.
Anderson Cancer Hospital, Houston, Dr. Harsh
Mahajan came back to India with the intention of
starting MRI scanning in India. Unfortunately,
since India had only one MRI at the time, he
could not get a suitable job and was forced to
become an entrepreneur though belonging to a
middle-class family of teachers. He took a great
risk and set-up one of the country's rst private
MRI centres. Over the last 25 years, he has
introduced many other technologies and has
travelled across the country and abroad, and
has given more than 1,000 lectures in
conferences, symposia and medical colleges to
educate doctors about how these new
techniques can revolutionize diagnosis and
treatment. He was awarded the Padma Shri for
his contribution to the eld.
