The presence of a supraclavicular fossa and the visibility of its floor on chest radiographs have been ignored in the radiological literature. In a study of 500 randomly selected chest radiographs, we could identify the floor of the fossa in 29% of patients. There is extreme normal variation in the visibility, depth, and symetry of the two sides. However, the fossa can occasionally stimulate a parenchymal lung abnormality such as a fluid level or an emphysematous bleb in the upper outer lung fields.
锁骨上窝的存在及其在胸部X线片上的底部可见性在放射学文献中一直被忽视。在一项对500张随机选择的胸部X线片的研究中，我们在29%的患者中能够识别出该窝的底部。两侧的可见性、深度和对称性存在极大的正常变异。然而，该窝偶尔会刺激肺实质异常，如肺上外野的液平面或气肿性肺大疱。
