Study Notes
Cervical Vertebrae
- Typical cervical vertebrae structures include body, spinous process, transverse process, and vertebral foramen.
- Function includes supporting the skull and allowing for a range of head movements.
Ankle and Foot Anatomy
- Key structures in the ankle: tibia, fibula, talus, and supporting ligaments.
- Foot anatomy includes metatarsals, phalanges, and arches for weight distribution and movement.
Bone Anatomy
- Essential components of bone: diaphysis (shaft), epiphysis (ends), medullary cavity, and periosteum (outer layer).
- Compact and spongy bone types facilitate strength and lightweight structure.
Shoulder and Upper Limb
- Shoulder structures: scapula, clavicle, humerus, and associated joints.
- Upper limb includes radius and ulna in the forearm, aiding mobility and manipulation.
Vertebral Anatomy
- Basic vertebral structures: body, neural arch, processes for muscle attachment, and intervertebral discs.
- Vertebral groups include cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, and coccygeal regions.
Skull Anatomy
- Key skull features include frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital bones.
- Lateral view highlights zygomatic arch and mandible structure.
Pelvic Structures
- Pelvic anatomy involves ilium, ischium, pubis, and pelvic inlet/outlet measurements.
- Provides support for weight-bearing activities and female reproductive organs.
Thoracic Vertebrae
- Thoracic vertebrae possess additional facets for rib articulation and a longer spinous process.
- They play a crucial role in protecting the thoracic organs.
Carpal Bones
- Specific carpal bones include scaphoid, lunate, triquetrum, pisiform, trapezium, trapezoid, capitate, and hamate.
- These bones provide the structure and mobility of the wrist.
Lower Body Bones
- Includes femur, patella, tibia, fibula, tarsals, metatarsals, and phalanges.
- Key for locomotion and supporting body weight.
Anterior Skull Features
- Distinctive features of the anterior skull include nasal cavity, orbits, and maxilla.
- Important for sensory functions and facial structure.
Scapula Anatomy
- Scapula features include acromion, coracoid process, spine, and glenoid cavity.
- Vital for arm movements and shoulder stability.
Thoracic Cage
- Comprised of ribs, sternum, and thoracic vertebrae.
- Functions to protect vital organs and support breathing.
Hip Structures
- Key components: acetabulum, ilium, ischium, and pubis.
- Crucial for maintaining balance and mobility during locomotion.
Inferior Skull Features
- Inferior view highlights the mandible, occipital condyles, and foramina for nerve passage.
- Important for understanding cranial nerve pathways.
Bone Structure Miscellanea
- Variations in structure allow for diverse functions within systems including support, protection, and blood cell production.
- Each type of bone has unique features tailored to its specific role in the body.
