What is the name of the bony projection that can be palpated in the medial aspect of the humerus?

The medial epicondyle of the humerus is an epicondyle of the humerus bone of the upper arm in humans. It is larger and more prominent than the lateral epicondyle and is directed slightly more posteriorly in the anatomical position.

Why does an AP projection of the foot require a 10 angle toward the calcaneus?

Why does an AP projection of the foot require a 10 degree angle toward the calcaneus (os calcis)? A 10 degree angle will show the joints of the toes and foot better than a perpendicular CR. Also, the angle will direct the stronger CR through the thickest part of the foot.

Which of the following is a condition where the medial longitudinal arch of the foot is decreased resulting in fallen arches?

Pes planus is a relatively common foot deformity that refers to the loss of the medial longitudinal arch of the foot, resulting in this region of the foot coming closer to the ground or making contact with the contacting the ground.

What is the rounded process on the proximal medial aspect of the femur called?

The femoral condyles are the two rounded prominences at the end of the femur; they are called the medial and the lateral femoral condyle, respectively.

Which of the following would not be demonstrated on a medial oblique projection of the foot

What is the name of the bony projection that can be palpated in the medial aspect of the humerus?

Why does an AP projection of the foot require a 10 angle toward the calcaneus?

Which of the following is a condition where the medial longitudinal arch of the foot is decreased resulting in fallen arches?

What is the rounded process on the proximal medial aspect of the femur called?
