    Study Notes

    Anatomical Direction Terms

    • Directional terms include: Dorsal/Ventral, Medial/Lateral, Cranial/Caudal, Rostral/Caudal, Proximal/Distal
    • These terms describe the position of structures in relation to each other.

    Anatomical Planes

    • Anatomical planes describe specific flat surfaces to divide the body.
    • Planes include: Dorsal plane, Transverse plane, Sagittal plane, and Median plane.
    • The median plane divides the body into right and left halves.
    • A sagittal plane is parallel to the median plane.
    • A transverse plane passes perpendicular to the body's long axis.
    • A dorsal plane (frontal plane) is a longitudinal plane that passes through the body.

    Regional Anatomy (of a cow)

    • Body regions are labeled including: Face, Nasal plane of muzzle, Jaw (jowl); Jugular groove, Dewlap; forelimb (arm, forearm, knee, foreshank, digit), Barrel, Milk well, Subcutaneous abdominal vein (milk vein), Paralumbar fossa, Perineal region, Fold of flank, Forequarters, Udder, Teats, Hindquarters, Hindshank, Shanks
    • these are superficial landmarks

    Horse Skeleton (labelled diagram)

    • The diagram depicts the skeleton of a horse, labelled with many specific bone names

    Ox Skeleton (labelled diagram)

    • The diagram illustrates an ox's skeleton, providing labels for various bones.

    Exercise: Specific anatomical questions (page 7):

    • The exercise includes a list of questions about the numbers of vertebrae, ribs, and names of specific body parts, in addition to their formulas (for example, teeth formula).

    Palpable Bony Structures (clinical note) (page 8):

    This is a clinical note about palpable bony structures and their use for anatomical study and clinical practice. The note is not about specific bones by name.

    Palpable Bony Structures (of the neck and back, thorax, forelimbs, gluteal region and hip joint, hind limbs) (page 9-10):

    • The text lists various bones that can be palpated for diagnosis and anatomical study
    • The various regions of the animal's body are individually covered for anatomical study

    Location of organs in a dog (lateral view) (page 16, 17, and 18)

    • The left-side view of a dog's internal organs displays various organs, from front to back, including lungs, heart, aorta, pulmonary artery, diaphragm, liver, stomach, spleen, kidney, intestines, bladder, and rectum.
    • The specific location of each organ is given, such as the position of the left kidney (high dorsal between the 13th rib and the 3rd lumbar vertebrae) and the location of the stomach which extends to ribs 9-12

    Location of organs in a horse (lateral and dorsal views) (pages 19, 20, 21, and 22)

    • The provided texts describe the position of various organs in horses, specifically their placement relative to ribs, lumbar vertebrae, and the pelvic inlet.
    • Key locations, such as the spleen's relation to ribs 10-18, the stomach's location in the intercostal spaces, and the caecum's position between lumbar vertebrae 2 and 4, are included

    Location of organs in an ox (lateral view) (pages 24 and 27):

    • The left side of the ox's abdominal cavity mostly contains rumen; the reticulum lies on the sternum in the diaphragm's dome from 5th to 6th intercostal space.
    • The spleen reaches from the dorsal end of the last rib to the costochondral junctions of 7 or 8 ribs.

    Ventral and Dorsal views of the abdominal organs in horse and ox (pages 28-31, & 30 & 31)

    • The diagrams indicate the position of different organs in a horse and ox. Specific organs, including various locations of the colon, stomach, kidney, liver, gallbladder, omasum, spleen, rectum, urinary bladder and uterus are labeled in these diagrams

    Exercise (various anatomical questions) (pages 32-44)

    • The exercises present a range of queries about specific structures/organ systems of the body
    • The exercises require detailed answers about specific organs, bones, nerve locations and functions, palpation points and structures that might appear during external or internal examination

    Injections (various anatomical sites) (pages 56-58).

    • Various locations for injections and their specific names such as intravenous, subcutaneous and intramuscular in dogs and Ox are described.
