what is the significance of human HAR2 (HACNS1)
enhancer that may play a role human bipedalism and tool making. expressed in human hands and feet but not primates
what are the 3 classic injuries to the radius and the ulna
- Monteggia fracture is a fracture of the proximal ulna and an anterior dislocation of the head of the radius at the elbow
- Galeazzifracture is a fracture of distal radius associated with subluxation (partial dislocation) of the head of the ulna (distal ulna) at the wrist joint
- Colles’ fracture is a fracture, and posterior displacement, of the distal end of the radius

protocol for imaging a wrist injury
image in multiple positions, AP, PA and orthogenal (oblique and lateral, which is 90 degrees)
CTs may also be used to visualize complex fractures, especially around joints
