General features of the radius and Ulna

Ulnaand radius form the bony skeleton of the forearm (antebrachium). Theyarticulate superiorly (proximally) with humerus to form elbow joint, and inferiorly(distally) with proximal row of carpal bone to form the wrist joint.Thelateral border of the shaft of the ulna and medial border of the shaft ofradius are connected together by interosseus membrane.
