Study Notes
Anatomy Basics
- Anatomy is the science of the structure and function of the body.
Anatomical Planes
- Coronal planes: imaginary vertical planes at right angles to the median plane.
- Horizontal or Transverse planes: planes at right angles to both the median and the coronal planes.
Directional Terms
- Proximal and distal: describe relative distances from the roots of the limbs.
- Proximal: closer to the root of the limb (e.g., arm is proximal to the forearm).
- Distal: farther from the root of the limb (e.g., hand is distal to the forearm).
- Internal and external: describe relative distances from the center of an organ or cavity.
- Internal: closer to the center of an organ or cavity (e.g., internal carotid artery is inside the cranial cavity).
- External: farther from the center of an organ or cavity (e.g., external carotid artery is outside the cranial cavity).
- Ipsilateral: refers to the same side of the body (e.g., left hand and left foot are ipsilateral).
Movement Terms
- Eversion: movement of the foot so that the sole faces in a lateral direction.
- Protraction: moving forward (e.g., forward movement of the jaw at the temporomandibular joints).
- Retraction: moving backward (e.g., backward movement of the jaw at the temporomandibular joints).
