Location On the anterior midline, superior to the upper border of the hyoid bone. How to find The hyoid bone can be palpated as a delicate bony structure slightly superior to the upper border of the laryngeal prominence. The patient should not recline their head too much, as this will cause the soft tissue to become stretched, making palpation of the bone difficult. Ren-23 is located on the midline, on the upper border of the hyoid bone and at the junction of the vertical aspect of the neck to the horizontal floor of the mouth (with normal tissue distribution).
