Study Notes
Muscle Anatomy of the Neck
- The anterior scalene muscle is labeled as 1.
- The anterior belly of the digastric muscle is labeled as 2.
- The thyrohyoid muscle is labeled as 3.
- The superior belly of the omohyoid muscle is labeled as 4.
- The sternocleidomastoid muscle is labeled as 5.
- The sternohyoid muscle is labeled as 6.
Muscle Identification
- The muscle indicated by "A" is the anterior belly of the digastric.
- The action of the muscle indicated by "A" is to elevate the hyoid bone during deglutition.
- The muscle indicated by "B" is the sternohyoid.
- The action of the muscle indicated by "B" is lateral flexion and rotation of the head to the same side.
Muscle Actions
- Elevates the lateral commissure of the lips (action of the anterior belly of the digastric).
- Laterally flexes and rotates the head to the same side (action of the sternohyoid).
- Elevates the hyoid bone (action of the anterior belly of the digastric).
