No other government medical college in state offers this treatment, despite broader claims of expanding tertiary health care, officials and doctors said.

Children injured in recent calcium carbide-related ocular incidents in Gwalior were referred to Bhopal for AMG procedures. Doctors said that AMG is used across medical disciplines, particularly in ophthalmology, to repair damaged tissue and support healing in severe injuries.
