You are seriously underrated. Super straightforward and simple. Thank you for what you do. :)

That's such a nice comment, thank you!

God bless you. I passed anatomy in 2017. I graduated LPN school this year, but have to take anatomy part 1 again before I can do my bridge to RN because it's been greater than five years and my credit aged out. I was angry at having to memorize all of these markings again. You are making it so much simpler than last time with these wonderful videos so thank you!!!

[@AnatomyHero]

Give yourself credit as well, if you learned it well the first time usually it comes back MUCH easier than you would expect, even if it's been years. Either way, I'm happy I could help you on your journey! Congratulations on taking the next step in your career, good luck in your studies!

[@sambrabham9183]

You're actually a life saver. I love the little tricks to remember things!

[@HelloFallWinter]

Great videos! Would be even better if you stated the right or left bones and the anterior and posterior views as you demonstrate

[@AnatomyHero]

Definitely! I had that same thought myself....I made some of these very quickly and haphazardly so I may redo them someday!

[@uhleeceeuhhh]

Thank you so much for this!

[@AnatomyHero]

You're welcome!

[@Maria-sf8yg]

question plz posterior face has a crest on It (the ulnar crest) That devises 2 muscular intersection fields =is it the posterior bord or different note in transversal cut view of the ulna it appears that the ulna has 4 angles (IN POSTERIOR FACE) thank you

[@AnatomyHero]

Sorry, I wish I could help but I'm a little uncertain about your question..it's hard for me to envision without an image to reference. Sounds like it would be the posterior border but I'm not 100% sure!

[@jaranis9273]

can you pls specify whether the bone is facing anteriorly or posteriorly? what are it's landmarks for me to determine whether it is placed anteriorly or posteriorly?

[@AnatomyHero]

The scoop (trochlear notch) of the ulna faces anteriorly. Early in the video I show how it meets up with the humerus to allow you to bend your elbow, it is facing anteriorly at that point. For the radius, look at the end with the styloid process. The anterior face is concave and the posterior is bumpier and convex. Around 1:45 I have it on the posterior face and then I flip it over so it's anterior. Hope that helps!

@@AnatomyHero Thanksss so much for replying. Now i realize i need to give more effort to this subject. I just got 63/85 in our prelim exam hahaha.

[@AnatomyHero]

It's definitely a subject that requires a lot of time and dedication. 75% isn't a bad grade to start with though. It means you're most of the way there, you just need to add the finishing touches! I have a video with study tips for bones specifically....the first six minutes were general study tips, then there's 15 minutes where I talk about bone vocabulary (which you might already know if you are well into your studying.) I made this video when the pandemic was in full swing so I didn't say the most important study tip which is...if you have access to physical models, spend as much time with them as possible! kzbin.info/www/bejne/m6KrnKiepLKYhbM There's also this video if you are having trouble with your cranial openings (foramen rotundum, lacerum, jugular foramen etc) kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpaoko1mjL6pq7M Good luck in your studies! I'm sure you'll do much better on your actual exam if you put a little extra time in!

[@jaranis9273]

@@AnatomyHero Thank you so much! I'm thankful for these materials. It is so hard to study for anatomy due to it being an online class. Pandemic in our country is still so bad so studying is kinda hard. Plus the laziness too ahahaha.

[@jaranis9273]

@@AnatomyHero Btw can i ask if you have some videos about the anatomy of the elbow region(nerve, blood, muscle, bones, function of each muscle/joint/bone)? I honestly think that is the hardest part of our anatomy rn. Plus the material is so long and isn't simplified that much for freshmen like us. I hope you have some guides about that. Thank you so much for the help thus far.

[@poweredbygaga9262]

So , head of Ulna is distal and head of humerus and radius are proximal? or I didn't catch it? 😊

[@AnatomyHero]

Yes, and just in case you need help remembering the logic: -Head of the humerus is proximal (because it articulates with the scapula) -Head of the radius is proximal (because it articulates with capitulum on the distal end of the humerus) -Head of the ulna is distal (because it articulates with wrist, while the other end, with the trochlear notch, articulates with the trochlea on the distal end of the humerus)
