Shoulder, Humerus & Elbow X-rays

Upper-extremity skeletal reviews focused on cortical continuity, joint alignment, displacement, and degenerative change.

What the observation engine checks

  • dislocation or subluxation
  • humeral or radial cortical irregularity
  • joint effusion clues
  • acromioclavicular alignment
  • degenerative remodeling

Common issues this page is designed to surface

  • clavicle fracture
  • proximal humerus injury
  • radial head injury suspicion
  • elbow dislocation
  • shoulder osteoarthritis

Optional chiropractic / alignment lens

This section is intentionally narrower. It focuses on visible alignment and biomechanics patterns, not unsupported symptom claims.

  • shoulder girdle asymmetry
  • gross humeral head centering
  • elbow carrying-angle observations where the view allows
