Question 1

Introduce the scapula - contributing joints and location

3 borders, 3 angles, 4 fossae, 6 other bony landmarks

Answer 1

(blank view) scapula contributes to the
glenohumeral and acromioclavicular joint. Sits on posterior aspect of ribs 2-7
Bony landmarks
-lateral, superior and medial borders
-inferior, superior and lateral angles
-supraspinous, infraspinous, subscapular, glenoid fossae
-acromion, coracoid, spine, suprascap notch, supra and infra glenoid tubercles

Question 2

Introduce the clavicle - contributing joints and location

2 roughened surfaces for ligament attachment

Answer 2

(blank view) clavicle contributes to the acromioclavicular and sternoclavicular joints. Sits above the anterior first rib between the sternum and the scapula
Bony landmarks
-trapezoid line, conoid tubercle for respective ligaments

Question 3

Introduce the proximal humerus - contributing joints and location
1 head, 2 necks, 2 tubercles, 1 tuberosity, 2 grooves

Answer 3

*tip head always faces medially (blank view) of proximal humerus is a bone of the arm. Contributes to the glenohumeral joint. Sits on the glenoid fossa of the scapula
Bony landmarks
-humeral head
-anatomical, surgical neck
-greater tubercle, lesser tubercle 
-deltoid tuberosity
-bicipital groove, radial groove

Question 4

Introduce the distal humerus - contributing joints and location
2 articulations, 3 fossa, 2 epicondyle, 2 supracondylar ridges

Answer 4

*tip anterior the way the trochlea sits is the orientation eg (trochlea on right side - its the right humerus) (blank view) of the distal humerus is a bone of the arm. contributes to the elbow joint
Bony landmarks 
-capitulum, trochlea
-oleacranon, radial and coranoid fossa
-medial and lateral epicondyle
-medial and lateral supracondylar ridge

Question 5

Introduce the proximal ulna - contributing joints and location
2 processes, 2 notches, 1 tuberosity, 3 borders, 3 surfaces

Answer 5

*think where the trochlea is pointing (blank view) of the proximal ulna is a bone of the foream contributes to the elbow joint and proximal radioulnar joint. 
Bony landmarks 
-shaft
-olecranon process, coranoid process  
-trochlea notch, radial notch
-ulna tuberosity 
-anterior, posterior lateral (interosseus)
-anterior, medial, posterior

Question 6

Introduce the distal ulna - contributing joints and location

3 bony landmarks

Answer 6

(blank view) of the distal ulna is a bone of the forearm contributes to the distal radioulnar joint and its not technically a part of the wrist joint distally because of a fibrocartilage disc 
Bony landmarks 
-ulnar head
-ulnar styloid process 
-articular surface

Question 7

Introduce the proximal radius - contributing joints and location
1 head, 1 neck, 1 tuberosity, 1 muscle attachment, 3 borders, 3 surfaces

Answer 7

(blank view) of the proximal radius is a bone of the forearm contributes to the elbow joint and proximal radioulnar joint
Bony landmarks 
-head
-neck
-radial tuberosity 
-roughening for pronator teres 
-anterior, posterior, medial/interosseus border 
-anterior, posterior, lateral

Question 8

Introduce the distal radius - contributing joints and location
1 notch, 1 process, 1 tubercle, 2 articular facets

Answer 8

*tip posterior view has the dorsal tubercle (blank view) of the distal radius is a bone of the forearm contributes to the wrist joint and distal radioulnar joint 
Bony landmarks 
-ulnar notch
-styloid process 
-dorsal tubercle 
-articular facet of scaphoid and lunate 
*scaphoid is always at the edge

Question 9

Introduce the wrist and hand - contributing joints and location
8 carpals, 3 parts of the metacarpals and phalanges 2-5, 3 fascia

Answer 9

*tip you won’t see the pisiform in the posterior view (blank view) of the wrist and hand bones contributes to wrist joint, intercarpals, CMC joint, MCP joints, and both the proximal and distal interphalangeal joints of fingers 2-5
Bony landmarks
- Scaphoid (on the radius), lunate, triquetral, pisiform
- trapezium (on the radius), trapezoid, capitate, hamate
-carpals, metacarpal, phalanges
-latter 2 have the base (most proximal), shaft, head
-palmar aponeurosis, flexor retinaculum, extensor retinaculum
