Is it the radiologist's responsibility if the report on the X-ray chest film does not write acromioclavicular joint dislocation?
I am a radiologist.

First of all, this situation belongs to missed diagnosis. Radiologists have certain responsibilities. (Not in the category of medical malpractice)

But the diagnosis of diseases should be considered from the clinical system. For example, traumatic diseases such as acromioclavicular dislocation, type I and II dislocation are difficult to see on the film, even negative. Generally, it can only be found by combining clinical symptoms and examination.

According to the information you provided, but the patient did not provide the corresponding symptoms and feelings, clinicians focused on common traumatic diseases, and radiologists naturally adjusted the window width and window position to the corresponding diseases. Both clinicians and radiologists are responsible for this missed diagnosis. And patients are also responsible for themselves.

If it is abroad, such responsibility is borne by the patient himself. But in China, doctors should bear the main responsibility.

First of all, I apologize for the mistakes of my colleagues, but please forgive me. You also said it was "something wrong", so I think it is the dislocation of I at most, and it will be fine to fix it generally. Maybe even no problem? So you can negotiate with the doctors and leaders of the hospital and there will be a satisfactory solution.
