The RADIUS is one of two bones connecting the elbow to the wrist. Specifically, it's the one behind the thumb. see the link for a human skeleton with all the major bones labeled http://www.enchantedlearning.com/subjects/anatomy/skeleton/Skelprintout.shtml
-Ulna bone: elbow bone -Radius bone: Forearm bone The radius is the bone of the forearm that extends from the lateral side of the elbow to the thumb side of the wrist. The radius is situated on the lateral side of the ulna, which exceeds it in length and size. It is a long bone, prism-shaped and slightly curved longitudinally.
In anatomical position the palms are facing up, making the ulna the medial bone of the forearm. The ulna is on the pinky side, and radius is on the thumb side.
The wrist bone would be the Ulna. carpals..
The radius bone is so named because of its ability to rotate around the ulna bone, which allows the forearm to rotate. This rotation motion gives the appearance that the radius is "radiating" around the ulna, hence the name "radius."
The Humerus Would be the upper bone near the bicep. The lower two bones are the Radius, and the Ulna. The Radius follows the thumb, and crosses when you twist your wrist.
The radius is a long bone.
Your Radius is on the thumb side of ur body.

The radius is a bone in the forearm, not a muscle.
The radius bone (or radial bone) is one of the two largest bones of the forearm, the other one being the ulna.
