Meanings of metatarsus in English

At slaughter, metacarpal, metatarsal bones and metacarpal growth plate thickness were measured.

The metatarsal bones are five long bones which link the ankle bones (tarsals) to the bones in the toes (phalanges).

Enchondroma is often found on the long bones, and very frequently upon the bones of the hands or on the metatarsal bones.

If in the body as a rule the three metacarpal or metatarsal bones are affected, and the fracture is generally transverse and oblique.

The cultured mutant metatarsal bones failed to response to TGF-beta1, while the hypertrophic differentiation was largely inhibited by Sonic hedgehog (Shh).
