Figure 3.1. Schematic representation of several elements of the<br />

left equine mesocarpal joint. Compression (yellow arrows) on the<br />

radius (R) and third carpal (C3) causes the wedgelike dorsal<br />

surface of C3 to laterally displace the radial and intermediate<br />

carpals (Cr and Ci). A portion of the compressive force is<br />

translateci into tensile loading (green arraws) on the interosseous<br />

ligament between Cr and Ci.
