She works as a Consultant in the Radiology and Imaging Department at Mymensingh Medical College Hospital. She is also associated with Memorial Specialized Hospital & Diagnostic in Mymensingh. Radiology involves using medical images to help doctors find the cause of a patient's problem. X-rays, ultrasound, CT scans and MRI are common examples. A person with a suspected fracture may need an X-ray, while another patient with abdominal pain might be sent for an ultrasound or CT scan.

Dr. Monira Akter's work involves reviewing medical images and helping clinicians understand what they show. The right imaging test depends on the symptoms and the part of the body being examined. An MRI is useful for some soft tissue problems. A CT scan can provide detailed images in other situations. Radiology also has a role in detecting tumors, internal injuries and certain organ related conditions. Much of the work happens away from the busy consultation room. A scan is taken, images are reviewed and a report is prepared for the treating doctor. Dr. Monira Akter works in this setting in Mymensingh. Lots of images. Plenty of reports. Then the next patient.
