Anterior

 Head
- The lateral, distal end of the ulna is the head of the ulna. It articulates with the ulnar
notch on the radius and with the triangular articular disc in the Wrist Joint.
 Coracoid Process
- The coracoid process is a thick curved process attached to the upper part of the neck of
the scapula and has a wide base. At first, it runs upward and inward. After that, when it
gets smaller, the direction changes and it protrudes forward and sideways.
- The coracoid process is a bone structure that occurs at the upper end of the head of the
scapula and protrudes forward and bends sideways. The coracoid process is located just
below the outer quarter of the clavicle and is connected to the underside by the clavicle
ligament.
 Superior angle
- Of the three angles, the upper angle (medial angle) formed by the connection between
the upper and spinal boundaries is thin, smooth, rounded, slightly inclined to the sides,
and edematous scapula. Connect some fibers of.
Scapula
- The upper horn is approximately at the level of the second thoracic vertebra. The angle
of the upper part of the levator scapula is thin, smooth, rounded, and slightly inclined to
the side, connecting some of the fibers of the levator scapula.
 Acromion
- The acromion of the scapula is a large bony process at the top of the scapula. This is an
important orientation point for skeletal muscle and a muscle attachment point that is
essential for shoulder joint function. The acromion forms the acromioclavicular joint
(AC) along with the clavicle.
- The acromion is the upper outer edge of the scapula (scapula). It forms the
acromioclavicular joint with your clavicle (clavicle) and is above the scapulohumeral
joint.
 Glenoid cavity
- The glenoid fossa of the scapula, or glenoid fossa, is part of the shoulder. This is a flat
pear-shaped articular surface at a lateral angle of the scapula.
- At the outer edge of the scapula, there is a flat pear-shaped articular surface, the
glenoid fossa. The glenoid is laterally oriented anteriorly and is articulated to the head
of the humerus. The bottom is wider than the top and has the longest vertical diameter.
 Greater Tubercle
- The greater the nodule, the less nodular it is on the side of the head. Its top surface is
rounded and marked with three flat impressions. The highest of these is inserted into
the supraspinatus muscle. Center of the infraspinatus; bone bottom and body about 2.5
cm.
 - Larger nodules, biceps sulci and smaller nodules in the humerus: The larger nodules are
on the outside of the bicep's sulcus. The less nodular is the inner side.
 Lesser Tubercle
- Located on the lateral side of the proximal humerus is an expanded bony area called the
greater tubercle. The smaller lesser tubercle of the humerus is found on the anterior
aspect of the humerus. Both the greater and lesser tubercles serve as attachment sites
for muscles that act across the shoulder joint.
- a prominence on the upper anterior part of the end of the humerus that serves as the
insertion for the subscapularis — compare greater tubercle.
 Coronoid fossa
- The coronoid fossa is located above the pulley and is housed above the coronoid
process of the ulna and the anterior parietal region of the condyle, which is the radial
fossa that houses the radial head when the elbow is bent.
- a depression of the humerus into which the coronoid process fits when the arm is flexed
— compare olecranon fossa.
 Lateral epicondyle
- The lateral epicondyle is a small bumpy ridge that curves slightly anteriorly and attaches
to the radial collateral ligament of the elbow joint and to the tendon common to the
origin of the supinator muscle and some extensors. The epicondyle is continuous with
the supraorbital ridge.
- So, defining the lateral epicondyle. If you pop it down the soft tissue. It's a lateral
epicondyle of the humerus and you'll feel the bony point there is the lateral epicondyle
of the humerus.
 Head of radius
- The upper limbs (or proximal ends) of the radius have heads, necks, and nodules. The
radial head is cylindrical, with a flat socket or fovea above it for joint movement with the
capitulum (or capitellum) of the humerus.
 Styloid process of radius
- The radial styloid process is located on the side of the distal radius. It extends diagonally
downwards into a strong conical protrusion. The brachioradialis tendon attaches to its
base. The radial collateral ligament of the wrist begins at its tip.
Temporal Bone
- The styloid process is a long process located laterally in front of the jugular vein process
on the underside of the temporal bone. Its proximal part (tympanohyal) is surrounded
by the vaginal process of the eardrum of the temporal bone. Clavicle
 Trochlea
- At the distal end of the humerus, there are two joint areas that connect the ulna and
radius of the forearm to the elbow joint. Inside these areas are pulleys, which are
spindle-shaped or roller-shaped areas (pulleys = "pulleys") that articulate with the ulna.
 - an anatomical structure that is held to resemble a pulley especially: the articular surface
on the medial condyle of the humerus that articulates with the ulna.
 Capitulum
- Just outside the humerus is the skull (the "small head"), which is a knob-like structure in
the anterior part of the distal humerus. The skull is articulated with the radius of the
forearm. There are two small depressions just above these bone areas.
 Radial Tuberosity
- The radius neck is a narrowed area just below the enlarged head. Subordinate to this
point on the medial side is the radial nodule, which is an elliptical bony process that acts
as a point of attachment for the muscle.
- an oval eminence on the medial side of the radius distal to the neck where the tendon
of the biceps brachii muscle inserts.
 Scapula
Anatomical terms of bone
- In anatomy, the scapula (scapula or scapula) is also called the scapula, scapula, wing
bone, clavicle, or clavicle, and the scapula (scapula) and clavicle. (Clavicle).
- The scapula, also known as the scapula, is one of the two largest bones of the scapula. In
humans, they are triangular and are located on the upper back between the 2nd and 8th
rib levels.
 Inferior angle
- The thick, rough lower angle is formed by the connection between the vertebrae and
the axillary rim. Its dorsal surface provides attachment to some fibers of the teres major,
and often the latissimus dorsi.
- The lower angle is formed by the connection of the medial and lateral edges of the
scapula. ... The anatomical plane that runs vertically at a low angle is called the scapula
line. The lateral angle of the scapula, or the angle of the glenoid fossa, also known as the
head of the scapula, is the thickest part of the scapula.
 Deltoid Tuberosity
- Return to the entire biolexicon. The deltoid nodule of the humerus is proximal to about
one-third of the elbow and provides the starting point for the deltoid muscle. The
deltoid muscle is a triangular muscle with three attachment points: the humerus, the
clavicle, and the scapula.
 Humerus
- The humerus is the largest bone in the upper limb and defines the human upper arm
(arm). It joints proximally to the glenoid fossa via the shoulder joint (GH) and distally to
the radius and ulnar bone of the elbow joint.
- The humerus is a long bone consisting of a diaphysis (diaphysis) and two limbs
(epiphysis). The longest bone in the upper limbs.
 Medial epicondyle
- The medial epicondyle of the humerus is the epicondyle of the human humerus. It is
larger than the lateral epicondyle, more prominent, and slightly posterior in its
anatomical position.
 Ulna
- The ulna is the long bone of the forearm, extending from the elbow to the smallest
finger and anatomically inside the forearm. Wider near the elbows and narrower closer
to the wrists.
- The ulna is one of the two bones that make up the forearm, and the other is the radius.
It forms the humerus and elbow joints and makes joint movements in the radius and
both proximal and distal. When the arm is in an anatomical position, it is on the medial
forearm. This is the larger of the two forearm bones.
 Radius
- It is a long bone, prismatic, and slightly curved in the vertical direction. The radius is part
of two joints, the elbow and the wrist. In the elbow, it connects to the crown of the
humerus, and in another area, it connects to the ulna with a notch in the radius. On the
wrist, the radius forms a joint with the ulna.
- radius is one of the two bones that make up the forearm and the other is the ulna. A
radial joint is formed on the wrist and a radial joint is formed on the elbow. It is in the
anatomical position of the lateral forearm. The smaller of the two bones.
 Head of Ulna
- The head of the ulna has an articular surface, some of which are oval or crescent-
shaped, pointing downwards and articulating to the upper surface of the triangular
articular disk that separates it from the wrist. The rest of the sideways are narrow,
convex and absorbed by the ulna.
- The lower end of the ulna is small and has two ridges. The larger lateral one is a ridge
with rounded joints called the ulnar head. The inner, narrower, more prominent ones
are the non-joint ridges, styloid processes.
 Carpals
- Carpal bones. The eight irregularly shaped carpal bones are the most proximal bones of
the hand. The carpal bones are often divided into two rows, the proximal row containing
the scaphoid, lunar, triquetral, and pisiform bones, moving from the outside to the
inside.
 Metacarpals
- Metacarpal bones. The hand contains five metacarpal bones that articulate proximally
to the carpal bones and distal to the proximal phalanx. They are numbered from the
outside to the inside, starting with the thumb, the metacarpal I, and ending with the
metacarpal V, the little finger.
- The metatarsal bone, one of several long bones between the wrist bone (carpal bone)
and each forefoot of the terrestrial vertebrate, corresponds to the metatarsal bone of
 the foot. ... The metacarpal bones also form a lateral arch. This allows you to operate
with your fingertips and thumbs in combination.
 Phalanges
- The phalanges are the bones of the fingers. Each finger has three phalanges, except that
it has two thumbs. In this section, you will learn about the anatomy of the upper limb
bones (clavicle, scapula, humerus, radius, ulna, hand bones).
- The fingers are named like the metacarpal bones, moving from the outside to the
metacarpal, starting with the thumb. Except for the thumb, each finger contains the
proximal, central, and distal phalanges. There is no pontic on my thumb. Phalanx length
decreases distally.

Posterior
 Spine
- (Spine) Bones, muscles, tendons, and other tissues that extend from the base of the
skull to the coccyx. The spine surrounds the spinal cord and the fluid that surrounds it.
Also known as backbone, spine, or spine.
 Acromion
- The acromion of the scapula is a large bony process at the top of the scapula. This is an important
orientation point for skeletal muscle and a muscle attachment point that is essential for shoulder joint
function. The acromion forms the acromioclavicular joint (AC) along with the clavicle.
- The acromion is the upper outer edge of the scapula (scapula). It forms the acromioclavicular joint
with your clavicle (clavicle) and is above the scapulohumeral joint.
 Olercranon fossa
- The olecranon fossa is a deep triangular depression on the back of the humerus, above
the humerus humerus. Extending the forearm creates space in the ulnar olecranon.
Ulna
- At the proximal end of the ulna, the olecranon is a prominent bony protrusion. It can be felt on
the back side of the elbow.
 Lateral epicondyle
- The lateral epicondyle is a tiny tuberculated eminence with a slight forward curvature
that connects to the radial collateral ligament of the elbow and a tendon that connects
the Supinator and certain Extensor muscles. The supracondylar ridges and the
epicondyles are connected above.
- So, defining the lateral epicondyle. If you pop it down the soft tissue. It's a lateral
epicondyle of the humerus and you'll feel the bony point there is the lateral epicondyle
of the humerus.
 Clavicle
- When viewed from the cephalad posture, the clavicle is a sigmoid-shaped long bone
with a convex surface along its medial end. It connects the axial and appendicular
skeletons, as well as the scapula, and each of these structures makes up the pectoral
girdle.
- Between the ribs (sternum) and the shoulder blade is the clavicle (scapula). It's the bone
that joins the arm to the rest of the body. The clavicle is located above a number of vital
nerves and blood arteries. When a fracture develops, however, these critical structures
are rarely harmed.
 Scaphoid
- On the thumb side of the wrist, it is located between the hand and the forearm (also
called the lateral or radial side). The carpal tunnel's radial boundary is formed by it. The
scaphoid bone is the largest of the proximal row of wrist bones, with a long axis that
runs from above to below, lateral to lateral, and forward.
- The scaphoid bone is one of the carpal bones on the thumb side of the wrist. It is
important for both motion and stability in the wrist joint. The word "scaphoid" comes
from the Greek term for "boat," and resembles a boat.
 Trapezium
- The trapezium is an irregular-shaped carpal bone found within the hand. It is found
directly adjacent to the metacarpal bone of the thumb. On its ulnar surface are found
the trapezoid and scaphoid bones, which are responsible for contacting the fingers and
toes.
- The trapezium is an irregular-shaped carpal bone found within the hand. It is found
directly adjacent to the metacarpal bone of the thumb. On its ulnar surface are found
the trapezoid and scaphoid bones, respectively.
 Capitate
- The capitate bone is the largest of the carpal bones in the human hand. It presents,
above, a rounded portion or head; below, a constricted portion or neck; and below, the
body.
- The capitate is the largest of the carpal bones and sits at the center of the distal carpal
row. A distinctive head-shaped bone, it has a protected position in the carpus, and so
isolated fractures are unusual.
 Trapezoid
- The trapezoid bone is the least frequently injured carpal bone in the human hand. It is
located on the side of the hand closest to the back, known as dorsal, rather than the
palm-side, called palmar. The structure of the trapezoids places it in a sheltered
position.
- The trapezoid bone (also known as the lesser multangular) is the smallest carpal bone in
the distal row, sitting lateral to the capitate. The trapezium and trabeculae are
collectively referred to as the multangular bones.
 Thumb
 - Thumb is the first digit of the human hand and of the lower-primate hand and foot. It
differs from other digits in having only two phalanges (tubular bones of the fingers and
toes) The thumb also differs in having much freedom of movement and being opposable
to other digits.
 Index finger
- The index finger is the second digit of the hand. Along with the thumb and middle
finger, it is one of the most often-used digits. This finger has practical applications for
both sensory touch and grasp, as well as expressive uses in art and music.
 Middle finger
Digitus medius
- The middle finger is the central digit of the hand. It is located between the index finger
and ring finger and is known anatomically as the digitus medius or tertius (meaning
'central' or 'medicinal' in Latin, or 'tentative'). Ring finger
 Little finger
- The little finger, or pinkie, is the most ulnar and smallest finger of the human hand.
 Hamate
- The hamate bone is the most ulnar based bone within the distal carpal row. It bears an
uncinate (unciform) hamulus (hook of hamate) which projects in a volar fashion from its
palmar surface and has a wedge-shaped body.
 Triquetrum
- The triquetrum is one of eight carpal bones that forms part of the wrist joint. It is a
pyramidal shaped bone that can be found in the medial side of the left wrist. The name
is derived from the Latin word triquetrus which means "three-cornered".
 Pisiform
- The pisiform is one of eight and smallest carpal bones that forms part of the wrist joint.
It is a small pea-shaped bone, develops in a tendon and is called a sesamoid bone by its
name derives from the Latin word pisum meaning "pea".
 Lunate
- The lunate is a crescent-shaped carpal bone found within the hand. It articulates with
the scaphoid, medially with the triquetral, and distally with the capitate. Proximally, it
abuts the radius.
- Third metacarpal flex and extend the wrist. And you will find where the lunate is giving
you your bony landmark.
 Scapula
Anatomical terms of bone
- In anatomy, the scapula (scapula or scapula) is also called the scapula, scapula, wing bone,
clavicle, or clavicle, and the scapula (scapula) and clavicle. (Clavicle).
- The scapula, also known as the scapula, is one of the two largest bones of the scapula. In
humans, they are triangular and are located on the upper back between the 2nd and 8th rib
levels.
