In canines the clavicle is not strictly a bony structure and is instead reduced to a fibrous area of tissue within the brachiocephalicus muscle. In some older canines the clavicle may be visible on radiographs.
In the cat, a remnant of bone may remain embedded in the fibrous intersection in the brachiocephalicus, which may prove misleading in radiographic images.
