A CT LT Shoulder Joint (Plain) scan is a specialized, non-invasive imaging test that uses X-rays and computer processing to produce detailed cross-sectional images of the left shoulder's bones, joint, and surrounding soft tissues like cartilage, tendons, and ligaments. Unlike contrast-enhanced scans, the "plain" CT does not involve dye, making it a quick, straightforward procedure typically lasting 10–15 minutes. This scan is primarily used to evaluate fractures, bone abnormalities, degenerative changes such as arthritis, soft tissue injuries, and post-surgical conditions. It offers a multi-angle, high-resolution view of the shoulder anatomy, surpassing what standard X-rays can reveal.

What Is a CT LT Shoulder Joint (Plain) Scan?

A plain CT scan of the left shoulder provides high-resolution images of the shoulder bones, including the humeral head, clavicle, scapula, and the joint cavity. It helps identify fractures, bone lesions, arthritis, and post-surgical evaluations. Since no contrast agent is used, it’s a quick, safe, and non-invasive test for most patients.
