Is the nose lateral to the scapula?
The humerus is lateral to the sternum. The sternum, or breastbone, is midline.
What is the name of the lateral condyle on the humerus?
the distal end of the humerus has two smooth condyles. the lateral one, called the CAPITULUM is shaped somewhat like a wide tire and articulates with the radius. the medial one, called the TROCHLEA is pulleylike and articulates with the ulna.
Is the medial epicondyle adjacent to trochlea?
The medial epicondyle (on the humerus) is located closet to the body when in the anatomical position and the trochlea (on the humerus) is located slightly laterally and inferior to the medial epicondyle.
What is the opposite of medial?
The opposite of medial is lateral.
Where are Medial and lateral condyles of the femur involved at?
The medial and lateral condyles of the femur are located in the knee. They articulate with the tibia.
Which bone of the upper limb has a medial and a lateral epicondile?
The humerus
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 nose lateral to the scapula?
The humerus is lateral to the sternum. The sternum, or breastbone, is midline.
Is the sternum lateral to the humerus?
No. The sternum is superior to the descending colon.
What is the distal medial process of the humerus?
The trochlea is the medial process of the humerus. The humerus articulates with the ulna at the trochlea.
What is the name of the lateral condyle on the humerus?
the distal end of the humerus has two smooth condyles. the lateral one, called the CAPITULUM is shaped somewhat like a wide tire and articulates with the radius. the medial one, called the TROCHLEA is pulleylike and articulates with the ulna.
What structure on the humerus is most medial?
The medial epicondyle is the most medial structure of the humerus. The trochlea is the second.
What is the origin of the tricep?
The long head from infra-glenoid tubercle, the medial convers most of the posterior area of humerus and the lateral from a ridge above the spiral groove. That is for the brachii Or do you mean Surae?
What is the most lateral distal part of the humerus?
Lateral epicondyle of the humerus.
Is the head of the humerus laterally concave or convex?
The head of the humerus is laterally and medially convex. The medial convexity fits into the glenoid fossa, and the lateral convexity, the lesser tuberosity, provides a site for muscle attachment.
Is the clavicle medial to the humerus?
Yes, the clavicle, or collarbone, is medial to the humerus, or upper arm bone.The clavicle is medial to the humerus. The clavicle, or collarbone, is located closer to the midline of the body than the upper body of the arm is.
Are the thoracic vertebrae medial or lateral to the scapula?
You can describe them as medial to the scapula.
