Arthroscopic Shoulder Diagnostic
Arthroscopic Shoulder Diagnostic
Arthroscopy is used to evaluate abnormalities inside the shoulder joint through a small camera, allowing the doctor to clearly visualize internal structures such as the cartilage, tendons, muscles around the joint, joint lining, and other related shoulder structures. The information obtained from the examination helps support diagnosis, identify the cause of shoulder pain, frozen shoulder, difficulty lifting the arm, or abnormal shoulder movement, and guide the development of an appropriate treatment plan tailored to each patient.
Signs of Shoulder Problems
Chronic Shoulder Pain
Persistent or recurring shoulder pain, especially when moving the arm or lying on the affected side.
Shoulder Stiffness
The shoulder feels tight, stuck, or difficult to move normally.
Difficulty Lifting the Arm
Pain or weakness when raising the arm, reaching overhead, or lifting objects.
Limited Shoulder Movement
Unable to move the shoulder through its full range, or symptoms do not improve with initial
Diagnosis
At S Spine & Joint Hospital, we focus on identifying the underlying cause before treatment. Our expert doctors will conduct a thorough evaluation. Every patient with symptoms indicative of musculoskeletal issues must undergo X-ray and MRI scans to assess pain and joint damage, allowing us to choose the most appropriate treatment path.
Treatment procedure
Treatment Technique
We stand out with our signature S-Quality treatment standard, which consists of three core components:
Specialized Spine Surgeons
🎯 Trained under hospital-standard protocols to ensure precision and safety.
Expert Support Team
🎯 With deep knowledge of treatment protocols and strong coordination with physicians to shorten recovery times.
Advanced Spine and Joint Specific Technology
🎯 Designed specifically for spine and joint treatments, including world-class surgical tools. The absence of any one component may compromise treatment efficiency.
Identifying the Cause
Diagnosis begins with posture-specific X-rays and MRI scans to evaluate abnormalities. Physicians combine both sets of images for a highly accurate assessment.
Pre-Treatment Preparation
Patients receive guidelines for pre-procedure preparation, such as fasting or disclosing medical history and allergies. A detailed physical examination is also conducted.
Arthroscopic Shoulder Diagnostic
Minimally invasive shoulder arthroscopy is a small-incision technique that allows the doctor to insert a camera into the shoulder joint to examine structures such as cartilage, the joint lining, tendons, rotator cuff muscles, ligaments, and tissues that may cause pain, stiffness, difficulty lifting the arm, or limited shoulder movement. This helps guide an appropriate treatment plan for each patient.
Smaller incision Than open surgery
After treatment, the doctor and a specialized support team will monitor the recovery progress and evaluate the patient’s condition to ensure pain relief, no complications, and a full return to normal life.
Smaller incision Than open surgery
Less pain Fewer complications
Minimal blood loss No transfusion
Fast recovery Home in 1-2 days
