Radial Artery 3D

  • Description

    • * Arises as the smaller lateral branch of the brachial artery in the cubital fossa and descends laterally on the supinator and flexor pollicis longus muscles.
    • * Curves over the radial side of the carpal bones beneath the tendons of the abductor pollicis longus and extensor pollicis longus.
    • * Runs through the anatomic snuffbox, enters the palm by passing between the two heads of the first dorsal interosseous muscle and then between the heads of the adductor pollicis muscle, and divides into the princeps pollicis artery and the deep palmar arch.
