Flexor Digitorum Superficialis
Interactive 3D model and summary notes on the anatomy of the flexor digitorum superficialis muscle covering its origin, insertion, action, innervation and blood supply.
System: Musculoskeletal
Pronator Teres
The pronator teres muscle is one of 4 muscles within the superficial layer of the anterior compartment of the forearm, and is responsible for pronation of the forearm and flexion at the elbow joint. The other muscles in this layer are the flexor carpi ulnaris, palmaris longus and flexor carpi radialis. It is the most laterally located muscle of the superficial compartment, located lateral to the flexor carpi radialis. The muscles of the superficial layer share a common origin from the medial epicondyle of the humerus. The pronator teres has two heads: Humeral head (larger and more superficial) Ulnar head (thinner and smaller)
Palmaris Longus
Interactive 3D model and summary notes on the anatomy of the palmaris longus covering its origin, insertion, action, innervation and blood supply.
Flexor Carpi Ulnaris
3D interactive model and summary notes on the anatomy of the flexor carpi ulnaris covering its origin, insertion, action, innervation and blood supply.
Flexor Carpi Radialis
3D interactive model and summary notes on the anatomy of the flexor carpi radialis covering its origin, insertion, action, innervation and blood supply.
Clavicle
The clavicle is a curved bone connecting the trunk to the arm. Covered in this tutorial: medial end, lateral end, shaft, ligaments, and muscle attachments.
Ulna
The ulna is a long bone located medially in the forearm. This tutorial reviews the following anatomy: proximal ulna, shaft, and distal ulna.
Radius (Bone)
Learn about the anatomy of the radius – head, neck, shaft, distal radius, muscle attachments, articulations and key anatomical relations.
Triceps Brachii Muscle
Interactive 3D model and video tutorial on the triceps brachii muscle.
Scapula
The scapula connects the humerus with the clavicle and forms the back of the shoulder (pectoral) girdle. It is a flat triangular shaped bone located posterolaterally on the thoracic cage.
