The clavicle
The actual bone which is referred to as the collar bone, is the clavicle.
The hip bone is called the pelvis and the collar bone is called the clavicle.
The scientific name for the collar bone is the clavicle.
There are two that a person might feel. One in the front called the clavicle (collar bone) and a large flat one on the back of the shoulder called the scapula.
The clavicle is also commonly known as the collarbone due to its position at the base of the neck, connecting the shoulder to the chest.
Your clavicle (collarbone) in your shoulder is the most commonly fractured bone, usually caused by landing on an outstretched arm and pushing your shoulder back or (as in my current case) a direct fall or direct trauma.
The clavicle is often called the "Collar bone" due to its location at the base of the neck.
The Medical term for the Collar Bone is called the 'CLAVICLE'.The clavicle or the collarbone makes up the top part of the pectoral (shoulder) girdle.
The clavicle is also commonly called the "collar bone." It stretches between the shoulder and the neck. The cervical vertebrae are the top of the spine: the are the first seven vertebrae going from the top of the spine down. The scapula is commonly called the "shoulder blade" and is a large, flat bone at the top of the back.
The scapula (flat triangular bone at the back of the shoulder)
There are two bones which make up the shoulder, the bone more commonly known as the collar bone is the clavicle and the bone more commonly known as the shoulder blade is the scapula.
It is called as collar bone or the clavicle. It is the only long bone, that is placed in horizontal position in your body.
