KARACHI: The CT scan and MRI machines of major Karachi hospitals have been lying out of order since several years due to sheer negligence of Sindh health department and Karachi Metropolitan Corporation (KMC), hospital sources said on Saturday.

The major diagnostic machines at big hospitals of Karachi, including Dr Ruth Pfau Civil Hospital (CHK), Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto (SMBB) Institute of Trauma, Abbasi Shaheed Hospital (ASH), Sindh Government Lyari General Hospital, Sindh Government Hospital Liaquatabad and National Institute of Child Health (NICH) are faulty.
