Voorbeelden van phalangeal

• The origin of the proximal phalangeal segment was located on the lateral aspect of the distal end of the proximal phalanx.

• The z-axis of the proximal phalangeal segment ran from the origin proximally along the long axis of the segment.

• The phalangeal breadth and depth estimates were obtained by multiplying joint breadth and depth coefficients by the hand breadth.

• The phalangeal length estimates were calculated by multiplying the phalangeal length coefficient by an overall hand length.

• The articulations are: interphalangeal articulations between phalangeal bones, and metacarpophalangeal joints connecting the phalanges to the metacarpal bones.

• You may also do a metacapral squeeze at this point to test for metacarpal phalangeal tenderness.

• The forepaddle may have five or six digits, with the maximum phalangeal count being between 8 and 16.

• The primary striking surface is the ridge formed by folding the fingers at the first phalangeal joint; the secondary striking surface is the palm hand.

• The phalangeal joints of the index finger, however, offer some independence to its finger, due to the arrangement of its flexor and extension tendons.

• Most commonly it affects metatarsal phalangeal joint of the foot.

• Wide articular surfaces should be narrowed and phalangeal wedge osteotomies may be required to provide an axial alignment.

• The phalangeal formula is 2-2-2-2-1, meaning that the innermost finger of the forelimb has two bones, the next has two, etc.

• The phalangeal formula, which states the number of digit bones (phalanges) beginning with the innermost digit, is 2-2-2-1-0.

• The ratio of successive phalangeal bones of the digits and the metacarpal bone has been said to approximate the golden ratio.

• The fore limbs also preserve the major and minor metacarpals as well as the finger bones showing a phalangeal formula of 2-3-2.
