The dorsum of the wrist contains six osseofibrous tunnels or compartments [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ], which are delimited deeply by the ulna, the radius, and the distal radioulnar joint, and superficially by the extensor retinaculum (or dorsal carpal ligament). Vertical fibrous septa extend...
The main text reviews the pertinent gross anatomy and procedures that are recommended to assess the soft tissue structures of the wrist, with particular emphasis given to tendons, nerves, and ligaments. Detailed explanations of the scanning techniques and sonographic appearance of the wrist structures ...
The relative position of the flexor tendons and the median nerve is not adequately described in the literature. A study of the wrist showed a comparatively constant relation of the tendon of the palmaris longus to the median nerve and tendon of the flexor profundus indicis.The anatomy of the...
information on the wrist anatomy; kinematics; and biomechanical behavior is presented, commencing with a brief explanation of the structure of its hard and soft tissues. Eight carpal bones in combination with two forearm bones (radius and ulna) construct the wrist joint. The motion of the wrist ...
As depicted in Figure 2, the six muscles are attached to the skeletal system on the hand and forearm through the tendons. In particular, the attachment points are below the fingers and are close to the elbow. By analogy, the attachments of TCAMs are allocated near the same positions and ...
The anatomy references were derived from 3D magnetic resonance (MR) image slices and segmented for several tissue types. Finally, several models were derived from the tissue-segmented anatomy references by a proposed voxel-based Monte Carlo photon propagation system. The proposed Monte Carlo photon ...

4. Discussion In accordance with the movement of fingers, the flexor tendon moves actively to transfer the force from the muscle to the phalanx bone, while that of the MN is passively moved following the indirect traction by the flexor tendons, which is mediated by the SSCT to avoid the ...
The construction of this type of rehabilitation equipment is based on detailed knowledge of the anatomy of the hand and of the motions its joints are capable of conducting. Further necessary data are the limits to such motions and the generated forces and moments. Figure 1 details the main bone...
