Description:
Distal ulna and radius. The distal epiphyses of the right radius and ulna. Anterior oblique view. On the distal end, the radius has a large concave-shaped articular surface for the joint with the carpal bones (facies articularis carpalis). Note that the distal end of the ulna is separated from the wrist bones by the articular disc. This is why the distance between ulna and carpal bones is much larger than the one on the radial side, and the shape of the ulna's head is not congruent to the carpal bones. Latin labels.
