carpals in order
T—trapezium
T—trapezoid
C—capitate
H—hamate
P—pisiform
T—triquetrum
L—lunate
S-scaphoid

saying to remember the carpals (staring at the thumb, going medially, then proximal and back around again)
tommy—trapezium
took—trapezoid
cooked—capitate
ham—hamate
platter—pisiform
to—triquetrum
lunch—lunate
shift—scaphoid
(me too because im HUNGRY)

trapezium
articulates with the 1st metacarpal, aka THUMB
TOMMY

trapezoid
articulates with the 2nd metacarpal, aka POINTER FINGER
TOOK

capitate
articulates with the 3rd metacarpal aka the MIDDLE FINGER
COOKED

hamate
articulates with the 4th and 5th metacarpals, and RING and PINKY FINGERS
has a projection on it…mmm bumps on ham
HAM-- -- -- so far… theres: tommy took ham, the ham is hamate

pisiform
the small, pea-like bone on the triquetrum
PLATTER

triquetrum
articulates with the ulna
the pisiform sits atop it
TO

lunate
articulates with the lateral distal end of the radius
LUNCH

scaphoid
proximal to the trapezium
articulates to the medial distal end of the radius
SHIFT

metacarpals
the bones on the back of our hands
labeled 1-5
1 being the thumb
5 being the pinkie

proximal phalanges or a proximal phalanx
most proximal of the phalanges on a metacarpal

intermediate phalanges or a intermediate phalanx
most intermediate of the phalanges on a metacarpal

distal phalanges or a distal phalanx
most distal of the phalanges on a metacarpal

tarsals in order
(still going from 1 back around again)
(medial) cuneiform
(intermediate) cuneiform
(lateral) cuneiform
cuboid
calcaneus
talus
navicular

medial cuneiform
most medial of the three bunches of cuneiform
articulates with the 1st metatarsal

intermediate cuneiform
most intermediate of the three bunches of cuneiform
articulates with the 2nd metatarsal

lateral cuneiform
most lateral of the three bunches of cuneiform
articulates with the 3rd metatarsal

cuboid
lateral to the bunches of the cuneiform, lateral to the lateral cuneiform
articulates with the 4th and 5th metatarsal

calcaneus
what we know as the heel of the foot

talus
most proximal of the tarsal bones/superior projection
has smooth projections that fit with the tibia and fibula

navicular
distal to the talus
also weirdly, sort of borders and touches all the cunieforms
