Healed arm bone fracture. Coloured X-ray of the wrist and lower arm bones of the right arm of a 10-year-old child, showing a healed fracture of the radius bone. The fracture area (white line) is at centre. This X-ray was obtained 3 weeks after the bone was broken. After ensuring the ends of the bone were correctly aligned, the child's wrist and arm will have been placed in a cast and sling to allow this healing to take place.
