Abstract:
The length of the radius was experimentally altered with respect to the distal end of the ulna. Pressure levels at several points in the wrist were measured simultaneously. Lengthening of the radius leads to an increased pressure between the distal radius and scaphoid and between the distal radius and lunate.
