The radiocarpal joint is a synovial joint thatâs also found in the wrist. The radius articulates with the first row of carpal bones, except for the pisiform. It has a fibrous joint capsule thatâs attached to that distal end of the radius and the ulna and to the carpal bones.
Called also cubitus. The elbow joint connects the large bone of the upper arm, the humerus, with the two smaller bones of the lower arm, the radius and ulna. It is one of the body's more versatile joints, with a combined hinge and rotating action allowing the arm to bend and the hand to make a half turn.
