| ramus palmaris superficialis arteriae radialis | <anatomy, artery> The superficial palmar branch of the radial artery which supplies the thenar muscles then enters the palm to communicate with the superficial palmar arch from the ulnar artery. Synonym: ramus palmaris superficialis arteriae radialis, superficial palmar artery, superficial volar artery, superficialis volae. (05 Mar 2000) |

| ramus profundus nervi radialis | <anatomy, nerve> A branch of the median arising in elbow region, running on interosseous membrane, supplying the flexor pollicis longus, part of flexor digitorum profundus and the pronator quadratus muscles, as well as radiocarpal and intercarpal joints. Synonym: nervus interosseus anterior, ramus profundus nervi radialis, nervus antebrachii anterior, anterior antebrachial nerve, volar interosseous nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ramus superficialis nervi radialis | <anatomy, nerve> Cutaneous terminal branch (with deep branch) which runs under cover of brachioradialis muscle to wrist, then supplies skin of proximal portion of the dorsal aspects of thumb, index, middle and lateral half of ring fingers and the portion of the dorsum of the hand located proximally. Synonym: ramus superficialis nervi radialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| margo radialis antebrachii | An alternate term for lateral border of forearm. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nervus radialis | <anatomy, nerve> A major nerve of the upper extremity. In humans the fibres of the radial nerve originate in the lower cervical and upper thoracic spinal cord (usually c5 to t1), travel via the posterior cord of the brachial plexus, and supply motor innervation to extensor muscles of the arm and cutaneous sensory fibres to extensor regions of the arm and hand. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sulcus nervi radialis | <anatomy, nerve> The shallow groove that passes around the shaft of the humerus; it lodges the radial nerve and deep brachial artery. Synonym: sulcus nervi radialis, musculospiral groove, spiral groove. (05 Mar 2000) |
| incisura radialis | The concavity on the lateral aspect of the coronoid process of the ulna that articulates with the head of the radius. Synonym: incisura radialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fossa radialis humeri | A shallow depression on the anterior aspect of the distal humerus, superior to the capitulum of the humerus and lateral to the coronoid fossa, in which the margin of the head of the radius rests when the elbow is in extreme flexion. Synonym: fossa radialis humeri. (05 Mar 2000) |
| canalis carpi | The passageway deep to the transverse carpal ligament between tubercles of the scaphoid and trapezoid bones on the radial side and the pisiform and hook of the hamate on the ulnar side, through which the median nerve and the flexor tendons of the fingers and thumb pass; compression of the median nerve may occur here (carpal tunnel syndrome). Synonym: canalis carpi, carpal canal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| caput humerale musculi flexoris carpi ulnaris | Humeral head of flexor carpi ulnaris muscle. See: humeral head. (05 Mar 2000) |
| caput ulnare musculi flexoris carpi ulnaris | Ulnar head of flexor carpi ulnaris muscle. See: ulnar head. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vagina tendinis musculi extensoris carpi ulnaris | The synovial sheath surrounding the tendon of the extensor carpi ulnaris in its course deep to the extensor retinaculum. Synonym: vagina tendinis musculi extensoris carpi ulnaris, peritenon. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vagina tendinum musculorum extensorum carpi radialium | The synovial sheath lining the compartment of the extensor retinaculum containing the tendons of the extensor carpi radialis longus and brevis muscles. Synonym: vagina tendinum musculorum extensorum carpi radialium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| carpi | The pleural of carpus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rete carpi dorsale | A vascular network over the dorsal surface of the carpal joints, formed by anastomoses of branches of the anterior and posterior interosseous, and dorsal carpal branches of the radial and ulnar arteries. Synonym: rete carpi dorsale, rete carpi posterius. (05 Mar 2000) |
