Skeleton part showing the entire right arm with the epiphyseal lines (incl. shoulder blade and collarbone)

Anatomically, the skeleton part shows all the bones in the hand, the 2 bones of the forearm, the upper arm, the shoulder blade and the clavicle (clavicle). Sesame bones are also seen.



The level of detail on the bones is really good. The scope of "osseous landmarks" includes both large details such as the tuberculum majus and minus on the humerus (upper arm bone) as well as smaller details such as the processus styloideus radii and ulnae.



As something special, the epiphyseal lines are seen on the humerus as well as on the ulna (elbow bone) and radius (spinal bone).

In terms of movement, the bones are assembled on metal, which allows flexion and extension of e.g. wrist, elbow and shoulder, but make it difficult to demonstrate rotation, as are the finger bones and wrists limited by the steel wire running through them. The humerus can be detached from the shoulder blade completely.

Clinically speaking, the arm is ideal for understanding diseases, disorders and disorders in this part of the skeleton.
