Knowledge of the morphology of the adult acromion process will help define the bony landmarks to be used in assisting surgeons undertaking specific operative procedures and technique.
Evaluacion de la Morfometria Escapular
The present study analyses the morphometry of the acromion process of scapula, which may help orthopaedicians during surgical repair around the shoulder joint.
MORPHOMETRY OF THE ACROMION PROCESS OF HUMAN SCAPULAE AND ITS CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS
At first, the acromion process, lateral epicondyle of the humerus and the middle part of wrist were identified and the longitudinal axes of arm and forearm were determined.
Smartphone and universal goniometer for measurement of elbow joint motions: a comparative study
Electrode placement for the deltoid was at the point halfway between the lateral aspect of the acromion process and insertion of the deltoid on the deltoid tubercle.
SHOULDER GIRDLE MUSCLE ACTIVITY AND FATIGUE IN TRADITIONAL AND IMPROVED DESIGN CARPET WEAVING WORKSTATIONS
The upper limb length was measured as the distance from the tip of the shoulder (acromion process) to the mid palm, just proximal to the distal crease at the third intermetacarpal space.
Inclusion of height and limb length when interpreting sympathetic skin response
Serratus anterior is underactive and upper trapezius is overactive in upward scapular movement (upward, internal and posterior tilt) during the elevation.29 The resultant motion of the scapula is desynchronised with HH motion and the acromion process does not clear the HH underneath.
Conservative treatment preferences and the plausible mechanism of Neer's stage 1 of shoulder impingement in younger people
It bears a facet that articulates with the acromion process of the scapula to form the acromioclavicular joint.
Anatomical variation in position, direction, and number of nutrient foramina in clavicles
The acromion process is dorsally directed, as in other basal iguanodonts (e.g.

The acromion process is completely broken off, but there is a portion of the base of the coracoid process present.
Late pleistocene shrews and bats (Mammalia: Soricomorpha and Chiroptera) from Terapa, a neotropical-nearctic transitional locality in Sonora, Mexico
Allowing the scapula to downwardly rotate will decrease the strength and efficiency of the arm motion; it will also cause a pinching of the supraspinatus tendon and subacromial/subdeltoid bursa as the acromion process of the scapula and head of the humerus approximate each other.
Balancing mobility and stability
The ToMPAW Arm's shoulder was controlled by a joystick modified to provide force feedback to the user, which sensed movement of the acromion process. Neither the Edinburgh nor the ToMPAW Arms were introduced commercially.
Design and evaluation of prosthetic shoulder controller
(i) At shoulder joint, the skin samples were obtained slightly lateral to surface projection overlying the acromion process of scapula.
