 | | The head of the humerus may be felt deeply in the upper part of the axilla, especially in thin subjects with the arm slightly abducted, the forearm suported and the muscles relaxed. |  | | The greater tubercle is the most lateral bony point of the shoulder region, and prevents a straight edge from touching simultaneously the tip of the acromion and the lateral epicondyle of the humerus. |  | | The ulnar nerve can be traced accompanying the brachial artery to the level of insertion of coracobachialis where it begins to diverge heading behind the medial epicondyle, and then to the medial side of the coranoid process. |

 | | This is the point where the clavicle articulates with a part of the scapula known as the acromion process forming the AC joint. |  | | Through the coracoclavicular ligaments, the articulation joins the clavicle with the scapula to form the coracoid process, a bony protusion on the anterior aspect of the scapula. |  | | The first degree sprain mildly stretches the acromioclavicular ligaments, resulting in pain between the clavicle and acromion process of the scapula. |

 | | The spine is a prominent plate of bone, which crosses obliquely the medial four-fifths of the dorsal surface of the scapula at its upper part, and separates the supra- from the infraspinatous fossa. |  | | The central part of the supraspinatous fossa and the upper part of the infraspinatous fossa, but especially the former, are usually so thin as to be semitransparent; occasionally the bone is found wanting in this situation, and the adjacent muscles are separated only by fibrous tissue. |  | | The end of this hook is the site of attachment of many muscles, such as the coracobrachialis muscle. |
