-
this pair consists of two bones the anterior clavicle and the posterior scapula
pectoral or shoulder girldes
-
collarbone, is a slender doubly curved bone
clavicle
-
which end of the clavicle attaches to the mandubrium and is rounded or triangluar is cross section
sternal angle
-
which end of the clavicle attaches to the scapula and forms part of the shoulder joint
acromical angle
-
on the posteriorinferior surface, this process anchors a ligament and provides a handy landmark for telling whether the clavicle is right or left
conoid tubercle
-
or shoulder blade, generally triangular and are commonly called wings
scapulae
-
flattened body and two important process, enlarged, roughened end of the spine of scapula
acromion
-
is beaklike like crow or raven is on scapula
coracoid process
-
at the base of the coracoid process allows nerves to pass
suprascapular notch
-
a shallow socket that receives the head of the humerus
glenoid cavity
-
the arm or brachium, typically a long bone
humerus
-
two prominences from lateral to medial, separate by a groove that guides the tendon of the biceps muscle to its point of attachment
greater and lesser tubercles
-
the groove that separates greater and lesser tuberble is called
intertubercular sulus
-
midpoint of the shaft is a roughened area
deltoid tuberosity
-
runs oblinquely indicating the pathway of the radial nerve
radial groove
-
resmebling a spool articulates with the ulna
trochlea
-
often called the funny bone
medial epicondyle
-
above the trochlea on the anterior surface
coronoid fossa
-
above the trochlea on the posterior surface
olecrannon fossa
-
small, lateral to the coronoid fossa, receives head of the radius
radial fossa
-
what are the two bones that make up the anti brachial
radius and ulna
-
the medial aspect of the shaft is a prominence on the raduis
radial tuberosity
-
is the lateral positioned bone in the forearm, disc shaped head
radius
-
distally, small, reveals where the radius articulates with the end of the ulna
ulnar notch
-
is the medial bone of the forearm
ulna
-
proximal end of the ulna bears this anteroiorly
coroniod process
-
proximal end of the ulna bears this posteriorly
olecrannon
-
the coronoid procss and olecrannon are separated by
trochlear notch
-
this small notch on the lateral side of the coroniod process articulates with the head of the radius
radial notch
-
small medial, serves as a point of attachment for the ligaments of the wrist
ulnar styloid process
-
the wrist is the proximal portion of the hand it is referred to as
carpus
-
the 8 bones composing the wrist are called
carpals
