Step Two: Bone Markings Identification

Humerus

  • Bone Markings to Identify:
    1. Head
    2. Greater tubercle
    3. Lesser tubercle
    4. Deltoid tuberosity
    5. Capitulum
    6. Trochlea
    7. Medial epicondyle
    8. Lateral epicondyle
    9. Coronoid fossa
    10. Olecranon fossa

Radius

  • Bone Markings to Identify:
    1. Radial tuberosity
    2. Head and neck
    3. Styloid process

Ulna

  • Bone Markings to Identify:
    1. Coronoid process
    2. Olecranon process
    3. Styloid process
    4. Trochlear notch

Bones of the Hand

  • Bone Markings Learned Previously:
    1. Scaphoid
    2. Triquetrum
    3. Trapezium
    4. Capitate
    5. Lunate
    6. Pisiform
    7. Trapezoid
    8. Hamate
    9. Metacarpals (I-V)
    10. Phalanges (I-V)
      • 10.1 Distal phalanges
      • 10.2 Middle phalanges
      • 10.3 Proximal phalanges

Exercise 10: Bone Markings Significance

  • Capitulum:
    • Definition: A condyle that forms a joint with the radius.
  • Trochlea:
    • Definition: A condyle that forms a joint with the ulna.

Collaborative Learning

  • Quiz:
    • Engage with peers regarding the bones and bone markings of the arm and hand.
  • Practice:
    • Utilize whiteboards to enhance the practice of spelling bone names.

Review for Long Bones

  • Focus Areas:
    • Review the bones and bone markings of the leg presented on day one.
    • Important to differentiate between left and right bones for long bones such as:
    • Humerus
    • Tibia
    • Femur
