INTRO TO ANATOMY TERMINOLOGY, PLANES AND MOVEMENTS OF THE BODY Learning Outcomes M1.I.COR.ANA1 Define the anatomical terminology, position, planes and movements of the body and identify these orientations on radiological images. M1.I.COR.ANA3 Outline the structure of the integumentary system and key surface landmarks.

ANATOMICAL TERMINOLOGY Anterior Posterior Superior Inferior Medial Lateral Proximal Distal Terminology Anterior = Posterior = Superior = Inferior = Lateral = Medial = Other terms to know Cranial and caudal = Superficial and deep = Ventral and dorsal = Proximal and distal = Abbreviations a. = br. = n. = m. = v. = aa. = ANATOMICAL PLANES The body is divided into left and right sides The body is divided into front and back The body is divided into top and bottom What is the median sagittal plane? ANATOMICAL MOVEMENTS Movements Basics - Flexion and extension - Abduction and adduction - Medial and lateral rotation - Circumduction - Opposition - Elevation and depression To extend is to stretch out, or straighten. To flex is to bend, or make an angle of a joint smaller. Plantar flexion and dorsiflexion are equivalent movements at the ankle Abduction moves the limb away from the median plane of the body. Adduction moves the limb towards the median plane of the body. Circumduction is the combination in sequence of the movements of flexion, extension, abduction and adduction. To rotate is to turn, or revolve, on a long axis Supination of the forearm is a lateral rotation of the forearm which brings the pal m of the hand to face anteriorly (ie the forearms are supinated in the Anatomical Position). Pronation is the opposite movement which brings the palm of the hand to face posteriorly. ABDOMINAL REGIONS We will cover this again in GI so don’t worry! Right hypochondrium. Region under the right costal margin. Right lumbar. Region on the right side of the abdomen. Right iliac. Region over the right iliac region. Epigastric. Upper central region of the abdomen. Umbilical. Region overlying the umbillicus. Hypogastric. Lower central region of the abdomen (suprapubic area). Left hypochondrium. Region under the left costal margin. Left lumbar. Region on the left side of the abdomen. Left iliac. Region over the left iliac region.
