Lesson overview
Trace the ulnar artery from the brachial artery through the forearm to the superficial palmar arch. Examine its course in relation to the surrounding forearm muscles.
In this VR lesson, Evan takes on the perspective of a first- or second-year medical student aiming to learn the path of the ulnar artery. Starting from the superficial palmar arch in the hand, he traces the ulnar artery backward up the forearm, noting its position between the flexor carpi ulnaris and flexor digitorum superficialis muscles. He identifies its origin from the brachial artery and explores how the artery travels from the arm to the hand.
By shifting between different dissection layers or using side-by-side views of various layers, Evan demonstrates how the ulnar artery passes underneath the flexor digitorum superficialis and flexor digitorum profundus muscles before reaching the hand.
