Arm
In human anatomy, the arm refers to the upper limb in common usage, although academically the term specifically means the upper arm between the glenohumeral joint (shoulder joint) and the elbow joint.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Arm
Biceps
The biceps or biceps brachii (musculus biceps brachii, "two-headed muscle of the arm") are a large muscle that lies on the front of the upper arm between the shoulder and the elbow.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Biceps
Brachialis muscle
The brachialis (brachialis anticus) is a muscle in the upper arm that flexes the elbow.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Brachialis muscle
Brachioradialis
The brachioradialis is a muscle of the forearm that flexes the forearm at the elbow.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Brachioradialis
Cervical spinal nerve 5
The cervical spinal nerve 5 (C5) is a spinal nerve of the cervical segment. Cervical spinal nerve 6 and cervical spinal nerve 5 are Neuroanatomy stubs and spinal nerves.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Cervical spinal nerve 5
Cervical vertebrae
In tetrapods, cervical vertebrae (vertebra) are the vertebrae of the neck, immediately below the skull.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Cervical vertebrae
Coracobrachialis muscle
The coracobrachialis muscle is a muscle in the upper medial part of the arm.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Coracobrachialis muscle
Deltoid muscle
The deltoid muscle is the muscle forming the rounded contour of the human shoulder.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Deltoid muscle
Denervation
Denervation is any loss of nerve supply regardless of the cause.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Denervation
Extensor carpi radialis brevis muscle
In human anatomy, extensor carpi radialis brevis is a muscle in the forearm that acts to extend and abduct the wrist.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Extensor carpi radialis brevis muscle
Extensor carpi radialis longus muscle
The extensor carpi radialis longus is one of the five main muscles that control movements at the wrist.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Extensor carpi radialis longus muscle
Infraspinatus muscle
In human anatomy, the infraspinatus muscle is a thick triangular muscle, which occupies the chief part of the infraspinatous fossa.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Infraspinatus muscle
Injury
Injury is physiological damage to the living tissue of any organism, whether in humans, in other animals, or in plants.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Injury
Ischemia
Ischemia or ischaemia is a restriction in blood supply to any tissue, muscle group, or organ of the body, causing a shortage of oxygen that is needed for cellular metabolism (to keep tissue alive).
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Ischemia
Latissimus dorsi muscle
The latissimus dorsi is a large, flat muscle on the back that stretches to the sides, behind the arm, and is partly covered by the trapezius on the back near the midline.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Latissimus dorsi muscle
Pectoralis major
The pectoralis major is a thick, fan-shaped or triangular convergent muscle of the human chest.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Pectoralis major
Rotator cuff
The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and their tendons that act to stabilize the human shoulder and allow for its extensive range of motion.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Rotator cuff
Serratus anterior muscle
The serratus anterior is a muscle of the chest.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Serratus anterior muscle
Spinal cord
The spinal cord is a long, thin, tubular structure made up of nervous tissue that extends from the medulla oblongata in the brainstem to the lumbar region of the vertebral column (backbone) of vertebrate animals.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Spinal cord
Spinal nerve
A spinal nerve is a mixed nerve, which carries motor, sensory, and autonomic signals between the spinal cord and the body. Cervical spinal nerve 6 and spinal nerve are spinal nerves.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Spinal nerve
Subclavius muscle
The subclavius is a small triangular muscle, placed between the clavicle and the first rib.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Subclavius muscle
Subscapularis muscle
The subscapularis is a large triangular muscle which fills the subscapular fossa and inserts into the lesser tubercle of the humerus and the front of the capsule of the shoulder-joint.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Subscapularis muscle
Supinator muscle
In human anatomy, the supinator is a broad muscle in the posterior compartment of the forearm, curved around the upper third of the radius.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Supinator muscle
Supraspinatus muscle
The supraspinatus (supraspinati) is a relatively small muscle of the upper back that runs from the supraspinous fossa superior portion of the scapula (shoulder blade) to the greater tubercle of the humerus.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Supraspinatus muscle
Teres major muscle
The teres major muscle is a muscle of the upper limb.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Teres major muscle
Teres minor muscle
The teres minor (Latin teres meaning 'rounded') is a narrow, elongated muscle of the rotator cuff.
See Cervical spinal nerve 6 and Teres minor muscle
