Is the ankle distal to the phalanges?
The radius is proximal to the phalanges. The phalanges are distal to the radius.The radius is proximal to the phalanges. The phalanges are distal to the radius.
What bones are distal to the radius and ulna and proximal to the metacarpals?
The radius and ulna are proximal to the carpal bones. The carpals are distal to the radius and ulna.
The head of the radius is located?
at the distal end of the radius
What is the term for a fracture of the distal end of the radius and ulna?
A fracture involving the distal end of the radius and ulna is commonly referred to as a distal radius and ulna fracture. It can also be called a distal forearm fracture. This type of fracture often occurs as a result of a fall onto an outstretched hand.
Is the radius medial to the ulna?
Yes, the radius is a bone in the forearm that is located medially (towards the midline of the body) to the ulna.
Is the radial head located at the distal end of the radius?
The radial head is located at the top of the radius bone in your forearm near the elbow. The distal end of the radius is near the wrist. So therefore the radial head is not located near the distal end.
What is located on the distal aspect of the humerus?
The medial and lateral epicondyles are located on the distal apsect of the humerus. The distal humerus articulates with the radius and ulna.
Is distal radius and ulna type of syndesmosis joint?
The radius and ulna are joined by a syndesmosis along the lengths of their shafts. The distal radioulnar joint is not a syndesmosis.
What is distal to the left elbow and proximal to the wrist?
The forearm is distal to the left elbow and proximal to the wrist.
What is the diagnosis code for distal radius buckle fracture?
813.42
Is the ulna proximal or distal to the radius in directional position?
The humerus is proximal to the radius. The humerus is the upper arm bone, and the radius is the main bone of the forearm.
What is a fracture in the distal portion of the radius?
bilateral = both sides Fracture = broken or cracked Radius = one of the bones in your forearm
