A CT Head + Orbit (Plain) scan is a non-contrast computed tomography (CT) scan used to obtain detailed cross-sectional images of the brain, skull, and eye sockets (orbits). It helps diagnose conditions such as:

• Head injuries, skull fractures, and brain hemorrhages
• Eye socket (orbital) fractures and trauma
• Tumors or infections in the brain, eye, or surrounding tissues
• Sinus infections affecting the orbits
• Optic nerve disorders and eye abnormalities

Since this is a plain scan, no contrast dye is used.
