Purpose of X-Ray Clavicle Right Side

An X-ray of the right clavicle should be recommended to:

• Diagnose fractures following falls, sports injuries, or road traffic accidents
• Evaluate shoulder pain, swelling, or tenderness
• Detect dislocation or injury of the acromioclavicular (AC) or sternoclavicular (SC) joints
• Assess healing after a clavicle fracture or surgery
• Identify bone infections (osteomyelitis)
• Detect bone cysts, tumors, or other abnormal growths
• Evaluate congenital deformities of the clavicle

• Pain over the right collarbone
• Swelling or bruising after trauma
• Difficulty moving the right shoulder or arm
• Visible deformity of the collarbone
• Shoulder instability
• Persistent pain after injury
• Suspected fracture or dislocation

Conditions Detected
