Caption: Coloured X-ray in front view of the left humerus (upper arm bone) of a patient, showing a benign (non-cancerous) bone cyst (upper frame). A cyst is a fluid-filled cavity. This one has formed as a result of injury. Benign cysts do not usually pose a threat to health, and tend to resolve without treatment.
