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.

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 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 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.


Is the radius medial to the ulna?

No. The radius is distal to the humerus. The humerus is proximal to the radius. :D
