Just a quick question: we recently covered the brachial plexus in anatomy, and I'm having trouble figuring out what resources to trust in terms of which spinal roots are included in which of the principal terminal branches because different resources I check say different things (i.e. class handouts, firecracker, wikipedia...). Just wondering if any of you have encountered this before and what I should be trusting here. Supposedly FC is pulled from FA, or so I thought...so should I just go with what they say?
Is C7 included in either the musculocutaneous or ulnar nerves? Does the median nerve include C5? There seems to be agreement that axillary is C5/6, and radial is C5-8/T1.
Thanks.
