What is Shoulder AC Joint X-ray (both sides)? Read the full explainer →

Shoulder AC Joint X-ray (both sides)

This x-ray looks at the small joint on top of the shoulder where the collarbone meets the shoulder blade, and it images both shoulders so the injured side can be compared with the uninjured one. Sometimes a weight is held in each hand during the exposure, which pulls down on the arm and makes a torn joint separate visibly.
