Ch. Part II Anatomical Body Flashcards
What is proper anatomical body position
Standing erect
Feet and head forward
Palms facing forward
Arms at sides
How the body moves as a whole part
Anatomical body position
Line divides body right and left side
Bilateral symmetry
Same side of body
Ipsilateral
Opposite side of the body
Contralateral
Identify one part with another
Injuries
Contralateral
Identify body parts
Recognition
Two major portions that the body is divided into
Axial , appendicular
Head
Neck
Torso
Axial
Arms
Legs
Shoulders
Hips
Appendicular
Connects to axial portions
Appendicular
How many regions is the abdominal region divided into
Nine regions
What are the nine regions from patients right to left
Right hypochondrial, epigastric, left hypochondrial
Right lumbar, umbilical, left lumbar

Bladder
Left iliac
Large intestine
What do you use for explanation of pain
Abdominopelvic quadrants
List the abdominopelvic quadrants
Right upper. Left upper
Umbilicus

Body is solid living matter
No we have body cavities
Hollow spaces in our body
Summarized by subdivisions

Pelvic cavity
What is the thoracic cavity and what does it contain
Chest cavity
Contains 2 pleural cavities
And a pericardial or mediastinum cavity
What do the pleural cavities house
Lungs

Dorsal
Toward site of attachment of a limb to the body trunk
Proximal
Away from the site of attachment of a limb to the body trunk
Distal
Near the surface
Superficial

Deep
What are the three major body planes
Sagittal
Transverse
Coronal
Vertical plane dividing body into right and left
Sagittal
Dividing equally right and left halves
Midsagittal
Dividing unequally right and left halves
Parasagittal
Divided into upper/lower body (horizontal or cross section)
Transverse
Lengthwise plane, running side to side (frontal plane) splits ventral and dorsal
Coronal
What are the risk factors that effect anatomical position and parts
Genetic Age Life style Stress Environmental Preexisting injuries
Dead body used for science research
Cadaver
Used by doctors when trying to find a diagnosis for an ailment
Exploratory surgery
An imaging technique that uses electromagnetic radiation to view internal structure of the body
Radiography
Computerized tomography
X ray views taken from diff angles creating cross sectional images f the bones and soft tissues of the body
Ct scan
Magnetic resonance imaging
Uses magnetic field and pulses of radio wave energy
Make pic of organs and structures inside body
MRI
