Service Providers for CT Scan of Left Scapula
A CT scan of the left scapula is used to evaluate fractures, tumors, or other abnormalities in the shoulder blade. During the procedure, you will lie on a table while the scanner takes detailed cross-sectional images of the scapula and surrounding tissues. Preparation involves removing metal objects such as jewelry or clothing with zippers. The procedure is painless, but contrast dye may be injected to improve image clarity. Risks include allergic reactions to contrast dye and radiation exposure. Results are interpreted by analyzing the images for fractures, arthritis, or tumors. Conditions like previous surgeries or contrast allergies may affect the process. Afterward, normal activities can typically be resumed.
