	Flexor carpi radialis muscle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In anatomy, flexor carpi radialis is a muscle of the human forearm that acts to flex and abduct the hand.
		This muscle starts at the medial epicondyle of the humerus (as does flexor carpi ulnaris muscle) and attaches to the anterior side of the base of the 2nd metacarpal.
		Flexor carpi radialis is the most lateral (closest to the thumb) of these.

		It is attached, medially, to the pisiform and the hamulus of the hamate bone; laterally, to the tuberosity of the navicular, and to the medial part of the volar surface and the ridge of the greater multangular.
		Flexor carpi radialis, which lies in the groove on the greater multangular between the attachments of the ligament to the bone.
		The Adductor pollicis is the opponent of this muscle, and approximates the thumb to the palm.

	Muscles of the Forearm
		The superficial flexor muscles all arise from a common tendon attached to the medial epicondyle of the humerus, known as the common flexor attachment.
		All of the flexor muscle, except for the brachioradialis (which is supplied by the radial nerve), are supplied by the median and ulnar nerve.
		The remaining nine muscles are all extensors and are all innervated by the radial nerve.

	Flexor digitorum profundus muscle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is called an extrinsic muscle, because it action is at a different location to the main body of the muscle.
		Flexor digitorum profundis, along with flexor digitorum superficialis have long tendons that run down the arm and through the carpal tunnel that attach to the palmar side of the phalanges of the fingers.
		It is one of the two flexor muscles of the forearm that are not supplied by the median nerve.

		At its origin, the flexor carpi radialis has been observed to receive an additional slip from the tendon of insertion of the biceps or its tendinous expansion, brachialis, the coronoid process of the ulna (~5%), or from the anterior oblique line of the radius.
		Flexor carpi radialis brevis, a small muscle arising from the radius, usually inserts on the fibrous sheath of the tendon of flexor carpi radialis and terminates distally onto the base of the second or third metacarpal.

	Distribution of presynaptic inhibition on type-identified motoneurones in the extensor carpi radialis pool in man -- ...
		The overall EMG activity of the extensor carpi radialis and that of the flexor carpi radialis muscles was recorded by means of a pair of non-polarizable surface electrodes (Ag-AgCl) placed 2 cm apart.
		To elicit reflex responses in the extensor carpi radialis muscles, the radial nerve was electrically stimulated (Stimulator S88, Grass Instruments; shock duration, 1 ms; frequency, 0·3 Hz) via a constant current unit using a pair of spherical surface electrodes (diameter, 1·3 cm).
		In human extensor carpi radialis muscles, the magnitude of the Ia presynaptic inhibition was investigated during voluntary contraction, depending on the type of motor unit tested.

		A sensor comprising an array of pressure sensing elements is attached to the mounting platform such that the operative face of the sensor is offset from the lower surface of the piston by a predetermined distance.
		Because the lower rim of the rigid metal frame typically rested on the radius bone and the flexor tendon, a hold down force corresponding to a pressure of greater than 200 mm of mercury inside the housing often was required to properly flatten the artery between the sensor and the underlying bone.
		Anatomical measurements have shown that the gap between the prominence of the radius bone 28 and the flexor tendon 21 lies in the range of approximately 6 mm to 12 mm for human adults.
