Anatomical Terms
- All directional terms refer to the anatomical position (body standing, hands forward)
Body Planes
- Sagittal: Divides body into left and right
- Frontal/Coronal: Divides body into front and back
- Transverse: Divides body into top and bottom
Directional Terms
- Anterior/Ventral: Toward the front
- Posterior/Dorsal: Toward the back
- Superior/Cephalic: Toward the head
- Inferior/Caudal: Away from the head
- Medial: Toward the midline
- Lateral: Away from the midline
- Proximal: Closer to the trunk or origin
- Distal: Farther from the trunk or origin
