Anatomy Exam #1 Flashcards
Levator Scapulae origin ans insertion
superior angle of scapula to C1-C4 transverse process
Latissimus Dorsi action
adduction, extension, and medial rotation of arm
Levator Scapulae action
elevates scapula
Serratus Posterior Superior action
elevate ribs
Serratus Posterior Inferior action
depress ribs
Semispinales (3 – thoracis, cervicis, capitis)
Extension and rotation (not lateral bending)
Interspinalis and Intertransversii
Stabilize vertebrae during movements of the vertebral column
Rotator Cuff muscles
Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus, Subscapularis, Teres Minor
Teres Major innervation
lower subscapular
Infraspinatus action
lateral rotation of humerus
Teres major action
adduct and medial rotation of humerus
Subscapularis action
medial rotation of humerus
Pectoralis Minor innervation
medial pectoral nerve
Serratus Anterior insertion
anterior surface of medial border of scapula (winged scapula)
Serratus Posterior super, infer blood supply
posterior intercostal arteries
Intrinsic Back Muscles innervations
posterior rami of spinal nerve
Sprain
ligament only
Strain
muscle or tendon
T1
fat is bright
T2
water is bright
H & E stain
Nuclei (blue) Cytoplasmic Proteins (pink)
Masson’s Trichome
Differentiate collagen from other eosinophilic structures (e.g., muscle fibers) (good for highlighting scar tissue)
Periodic Acid-Schiff Stain
stains carbohydrates like glycogen and glycoproteins (glomeruli in kidneys and glycogen in liver)
Metal Stains
membrane and elastic fibers
Linear Array Transducer
superficial muscles, thyroid, breast
Curved Array Transducer
deep wide view abdominal
Phased Array Transducer
small sized and deep view (good to look at cardiac beneath ribs)
