The CT Elbow (Plain) scan at Sooriya Diagnostic, Kathmandu, is an advanced imaging technique designed to provide high-resolution visualization of the elbow joint, bones, and surrounding soft tissues. This scan plays a crucial role in diagnosing fractures, joint abnormalities, arthritis, ligament injuries, and other musculoskeletal conditions affecting the elbow with exceptional accuracy. A CT Elbow (Plain) scan is particularly useful for detecting subtle fractures, bone deformities, dislocations, stress injuries, osteoarthritis, and post-traumatic complications that may not be clearly visible on standard X-rays. It provides a comprehensive assessment of the humerus, radius, ulna, and joint structures, helping doctors determine the extent of injuries or degenerative changes.

This scan is highly recommended for individuals experiencing chronic elbow pain, stiffness, restricted movement, swelling, or suspected fractures due to sports injuries, falls, or accidents. It is also an essential imaging tool for diagnosing conditions such as tennis elbow, rheumatoid arthritis, ligament tears, post-surgical evaluations, and complications related to previous injuries. During the procedure, the patient lies on the CT scanner table while multiple cross-sectional images of the elbow are captured. Unlike contrast-enhanced scans, CT Elbow (Plain) does not require an intravenous contrast dye, making it a safe and efficient imaging option for patients with allergies to contrast agents or those who do not require vascular assessment. The scan is quick, painless, and non-invasive, typically completed within a few minutes, allowing patients to resume normal activities immediately afterward.
