Discussion

SJLD Sep 21, 2011:
no
Jutta Scherer Sep 21, 2011:
Couldn't "lateral" refer to the other (the "inner") side of the radius as well? (Just wondering)
SJLD Sep 21, 2011:
"On the thumb side" would be patient level language, not something a radiologist would write in a report.
uyuni Sep 20, 2011:
The thumb can either be located lateral or medial to the body center, depending on pronation or supination in the elbow joint. However, anatomical designations always refer to the so-called neutral position in which the thumbs are turned outward (i.e. away from the middle of the body, which is *lateral* in the sense of strict terminology. That´s why I´d go with SJLD and say *lateral(ly)*.

Here in fact I might say something like: There is a fracture on the lateral aspect of the radius.
Peer comment(s):
agree David Tracey, PhD : If it wasn't a fracture of the radius, one could say 'radially', which in other contexts is better. But not in this one.

hi David :-) thanks!
agree uyuni : The lateral surface - *of the radius* - explanation added by me -(facies lateralis; external surface) is convex throughout its entire extent. http://www.bartleby.com/107/53.html
