What else can I help you with?
Is the thorax distal to the abdomen?
No, the thorax is proximal to the abdomen. The term "distal" refers to a structure that is farther away from the point of attachment, while "proximal" refers to being closer to the point of attachment.
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.
Is the liver distal to the sternum?
Yes, the liver is distal to the sternum. The sternum is located in the chest, while the liver is situated in the upper right quadrant of the abdomen.
Is the hand is proximal to elbow?
No . The hand is proximal to the wrist . Proximal = proximity[ closeness] Distal = distant [ farther away ]
What is distal to the cubitus and proximal to the carpus?
The radius bone in the forearm is distal to the cubitus (ulna) and proximal to the carpus (wrist bones).
Is hand proximal to the elbow?
No. Proximal means closer to the body. Example: The elbow is distal to the chest. The elbow is proximal to the hand. The hand is distal to the chest and the elbow.
Are eyes distal to the chest?
The eyes are superior to the chest. "Distal" and "proximal" don't apply to the features of the face.
Is the elbow proximal or distal to your fingers?
The hand is distal, because your hand is drawing away from your body. Proximal means closer to the body.Example: The elbow is distal to the chest. The elbow is proximal to the hand. The hand is distal to the chest and the elbow.
Is the thorax distal to the abdomen?
No, the thorax is proximal to the abdomen. The term "distal" refers to a structure that is farther away from the point of attachment, while "proximal" refers to being closer to the point of attachment.
What is the opposite of proximal?
The term most opposite of proximal is "distal."
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.
Is the wrist distal or proximal to the shoulder?
The wrist is distal to the shoulder. The shoulder is proximal to the wrist.
Is the head distal or proximal to the shoulders?
Proximal
What is the opposite of distal?
Proximal is the opposite of distal.
Is the foot distal or proximal to the heart?
Distal
Is the shoulder proximal or distal to the wrist?
Proximal vs. distal, is in reference to the Point of attachment to the axial skeleton. So the shoulder is proximal to the wrist, or the wrist is distal to the shoulder. Distal= further away Proximal= closer
Is electrical activity of the heart distal to proximal?
No, electrical activity in the heart moves from proximal to distal.
