  1. DISTANCE I: ACHA to coracoid process
  2. Two examples were removed from the sample due to AHCA rupture
  3. DISTANCE II: PCHA to coracoid process
  4. Two examples were abandoned because PHCA originated prematurely from SSA
  5. DISTANCE III: Interval between ACHA and PCHA
  6. Two examples were abandoned. (1) ACHA rupture; (2) ACHA and PCHA originate from DBA
