Mastering A&P: Scapula Anatomy

Scapula Anatomy Notes

• The anterior surface of the scapula features the subscapular fossa, a concave area that serves as an attachment site for muscles.
• The suprascapular notch is located along the superior border of the scapula, which allows for the passage of nerves and vessels.
• The coracoid process is a prominent bony projection on the scapula that does not connect with any other bone, serving primarily for muscle attachment.
