Carpal Biomechanics: Comparative Anatomy During Dorsiflexion and Palmar Flexion
The wrist represents one of the most complex joint systems in the human body, facilitating a remarkable range of motion crucial for daily activities and specialized tasks. The anatomical illustration demonstrates the dynamic positioning of carpal bones during two fundamental wrist movements: dorsiflexion (extension) on the left and palmar flexion on the right. This sagittal view provides critical insight into how individual carpal bones articulate and reposition during these opposing movements.
