CT – Shoulder Joint is a diagnostic imaging procedure that uses computed tomography (CT) to obtain detailed cross-sectional images of the shoulder joint. This includes the humeral head, glenoid cavity, scapula, clavicle, and surrounding bony structures.

The scan provides high-resolution images that are particularly useful for evaluating complex fractures, joint alignment, and bone abnormalities. It may be performed with or without contrast dye depending on the clinical requirement, especially when soft tissue or vascular involvement is suspected.

CT Shoulder Joint is commonly used in cases of trauma, persistent shoulder pain, suspected fractures, dislocations, arthritis, or post-surgical evaluation. It offers better detail of bone structures compared to standard X-rays and helps in accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

The procedure is quick, non-invasive, and plays an important role in orthopedic and trauma assessment.

This test is recommended for individuals with symptoms or conditions affecting the shoulder.

It is advised in the following cases:

• Shoulder pain or stiffness
• Injury or trauma to the shoulder
• Suspected fractures or dislocation
• Limited range of motion
• Degenerative joint conditions
• Follow-up evaluation after treatment or surgery
