Skeleton Study

Hi Matt,

I am doing a study of the skeleton in the photo of the old man that I like his pose.

I struggled a lot to correctly spot the skeleton-like end of the ribcage, spine, and elbow, where the two bones, ulna and radius, meet to create the elbow!

Also, I struggled to spot the pelvis and ASIS (anterior superior iliac spine), patella …

Almost everything!

– Does the ulna edge form the elbow?

 

On the same photo at the right one, I tried to spot the most common places in the body where the skeleton protrudes (with letters):

a-exterior malleolus (of the fibula),   b-tibia,   c-patella, d-heads of metacarpals (knuckles)

e-joint at base of thumb,   f-clavicle,   g-anterior superior iliac spine (of the pelvis),   h-thorax (rib cage)

i-medial epicondyle (of the humerus),   j-olecranon process (part of the ulna),   k-head of ulna (wrist joint),   L-acromion process (of the scapula)

 

thanks alot

Nadim
