Acromion process

From Wacklepedia - The Free Encyclopedia


The acromion process, or simply the acromion, is an anatomical feature on the scapula.

It is a continuation of the scapular spine, and hooks over anteriorly. The acromion articulates with the clavicle to form the acromioclavicular joint which is a part of the shoulder joint.
