The CT Shoulder (Plain) scan at Sooriya Diagnostic, Kathmandu, is a high-resolution imaging technique designed to provide detailed visualization of the bones, joints, and soft tissues of the shoulder. This advanced scan plays a crucial role in diagnosing fractures, dislocations, arthritis, tendon injuries, and other shoulder-related conditions with exceptional accuracy.

A CT Shoulder (Plain) scan is particularly useful for detecting fractures, bone deformities, dislocations, arthritis, rotator cuff tears, and other injuries or conditions that may not be clearly visible on standard X-rays. It provides a comprehensive assessment of the bones and joints in the shoulder, including the clavicle, scapula, humerus, and surrounding soft tissues, helping doctors determine the extent of injuries or abnormalities affecting the shoulder.

This scan is highly recommended for individuals experiencing persistent shoulder pain, stiffness, difficulty in movement, or suspected fractures due to trauma, sports injuries, or repetitive stress. It is also an essential imaging tool for evaluating conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, rotator cuff tears, and post-surgical evaluations of the shoulder.

During the procedure, the patient lies on the CT scanner table while multiple cross-sectional images of the shoulder are captured. Unlike contrast-enhanced scans, CT Shoulder (Plain) does not require an intravenous contrast dye, making it a safe and efficient imaging option for patients who may have 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.

At Sooriya Diagnostic, we prioritize accuracy, patient safety, and comfort by utilizing state-of-the-art CT imaging technology and expert radiologists to deliver precise and reliable diagnostic results.
