Radiologic examination, shoulder; minimum of 2 views

AI EXPLANATION: A shoulder X-ray is an outpatient diagnostic imaging exam that uses a safe, low dose of radiation to produce detailed black-and-white pictures of the bones and joints in the shoulder. During the test, an imaging technologist takes images from at least two different angles, which helps clinicians check for bone fractures, joint dislocations, arthritis, bone spurs, and other potential causes of shoulder pain.
