The phalanges, or toe bones, are distal to the metatarsals. They are farther away from the origin of the lower limb.
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.
It depends on the phalanges in question. The distal phalanges in the four fingers and toes articulate with the intermediate phalanges. The intermediate phalanges articulate with the proximal phalanges and the proximal phalanges articulate with the metacarpals of the hand and the metatarsals of the toes. The same is true for the thumb and big toe except that neither one has an intermediate phalanges.
No, the tarsal bones are proximal to the phalanges. The phalanges are distal to the tarsal bones.
Distal to the metatarsals are the phalanges. The great toe (hallux) has two phalanges where as all of the other toes have three each. The proximal phalanges attach the the metatarsals via the metatarsal phalangeal joints. Proximal to the metatarsals are the tarsals. The first, second, and third cuneiforms articulate with the first, second and third metatarsals. The fourth metatarsal articulates with the cuboid and the head of the fifth metatarsal is its own projection that can be felt on the lateral foot.
The phalanges are the finger and toe bones. There is nothing in the upper limb distal to the phalanges except the very tips of the fingers.
Proximal to distal, the femur, the tibia, the patella, the fibula, the tarsal bones (ankle bones), the five metatarsals and the 12 phalanges.
The bones of the fingers are carpals (hence carpal tunnel syndrome), and the bones in-between the wrists and fingers are metacarpals. The bones of the toes are tarsals and the bones in-between then toes and ankles are metatarsals. Huzzah!
The metatarsals are the bones in the feet that are between the ankle bones (the tarsals) and the toes (the phalanges).
The metatarsals are the bones in the feet that are between the ankle bones (the tarsals) and the toes (the phalanges).
The metatarsals are the bones in the feet that are between the ankle bones (the tarsals) and the toes (the phalanges).
The pedal phalanges are the toe bones. The distal phalanges are the finger or toe bones found at the tip of the digits.
Yes, but only in the feet.
