Neutral Full Ext &rad - Dev Flex Ext: Dorsal Glide

The document describes the motions and glides of the wrist, hand, and finger joints. The radiocarpal joint involves the convex proximal row of carpals articulating with the concave distal radius, allowing for dorsal/volar gliding and radial/ulnar deviation. The carpometacarpal joint of the thumb involves concave/convex surfaces for flexion/extension and abduction/adduction with associated glides. The metacarpophalangeal and interphalangeal finger joints have convex/concave articulating surfaces.
