ulnar caprilongus
Moving the wrist back and forth in the frontal plane is known as radial and ulnar deviation.
The plane of ulnar-radial deviation refers to the movement of the hand towards the pinky finger (ulnar deviation) or towards the thumb (radial deviation) in the frontal plane. This movement primarily occurs at the wrist joint and is important for functions like gripping objects and manipulating tools.

Radial and Ulnar
The median nerve supplies most of the flexor muscles of the human forearm, and some hand muscles. The ulnar nerve also supplies two flexor muscles, and most of the remaining hand muscles that the median nerve does not cover.
Of the muscles within the hand, the median nerve (C8, T1) commonly supplies two radial lumbricals, opponens pollicis, adductor pollicis brevis and flexor pollicis brevis. These all lie on the radial side. All other muscles of the hand are supplied by the ulnar nerve (C8,T1).
Pronation and super action between the distal radio-ulnar joints, flexing and extension at the radiocarpel joints and radial deviation.

The brachial artery branches into the ulnar and radial arteries. The brachial artery is the main artery of the arm.
The radial and ulnar arteries branch off from the brachial (axillary) artery below the elbow.
