The head of the radius is located?
at the distal end of the radius
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 at the end of the radius?
The radius is one of the two bones of the forearm. The styloid process is at the distal end of the radius and then the carpals of the hand. The elbow is located at the other end of the radius.
Is the radius medial to the ulna?
No. The radius is distal to the humerus. The humerus is proximal to the radius. :D
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 The distal end of the humerus at the shoulder?
The distal end of the humerus articulates with the two bones of the forearm, the radius and the ulna. Noteworthy features on its distal and are the lateral and medial epicondyles (one of which is your elbow) as well as the trochlea and capitulum(both of these features forming the "pulley" shape found at the end of the humerus.
What is the term for a fracture of the distal end of the radius and ulna?
A fracture of both radius and ulna is a radioulnar fracture. This term is not specific to distal fractures.
What is the name of the slender pointed projection on the distal end of the ulna?
The same as the slender, pointed projection on the distal end of the radius: the styloid process
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 is the name of the slender pointed projection on the distal end of the radius?
styloid process
Is the Styloid process at the distal end of the radius?
Yes. There are bony projections on the distal ends of both the ulna and radius. These bony projections can be identified by palpating them directly, and are referred to as the Styloid Processes.
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.
