It passes backward between the oblique cord and the upper border of the interosseous membrane.
2.
The interosseous membrane connects these bones.
3.
This crest separates the volar from the dorsal surface, and gives attachment to the interosseous membrane.
4.
This crest gives attachment to the interosseous membrane, and separates the volar from the dorsal surface.
5.
The interosseous membrane originates medially along the length of the body of the radius to attach the radius to the ulna.
6.
Passing backward to the upper border of the interosseous membrane, it divides into two branches, the posterior interosseous arteries.
7.
It serves for the attachment of the interosseous membrane, which separates the extensor muscles in front from the flexor muscles behind.
8.
The interosseous membrane is designed to shift compressive loads ( as in doing a hand-stand ) from the distal radius to the proximal ulna.
9.
The two anterior tibial veins ascend in the interosseous membrane between the tibia and fibula and unite with the posterior tibial veins to form the popliteal vein.
10.
The role of the membrane in load shifting is illustrated when the interosseous membrane is cut; the forces on each bone equalize from their natural proportions.
