Arm nerves. Historical anatomical artwork of the nerves (white) of the front (palm side) of a human forearm. At left, the superficial (surface) nerves are shown, while at right the deep nerves and muscles (red) are seen. The main deep nerve (down the centre of the arm) is the median nerve. To the right of that is the ulnar nerve. The brachial artery (red) is also seen, dividing into the radial and ulnar branches. The tendons of the hand (grey) are also seen. The superficial arm nerves are the internal and external cutaneous (skin) nerves. Artwork from The Nerves of the Human Body (Ed. Jones Quain, London, 1839).
