ant: between the 3rd and 4th ribs (3rd intercostal space) near the sternum
post: intertransverse space, midway between the spinous and transverse processes of the 3rd and 4th thoracic vertebrae
Bladder
ant: around the umbilicus, as well as on the pubic symphysis close to the median line
post: upper edge of transverse process of L2
Broad ligament

post: Midway between the tip of the transverse process and spinous process of T2 on the posterior aspect of hte transvese process
Cerebellum
ant: Tip of the coracoid process
post: Just under the skull, midway between the nuchal ligament and the C1 transverse process
Clitoris
Ant: upper, inner aspect of the posterior thigh 2-5” long and 1.5-2” wide

Colon (spastic constipation or colitis)
Anterior: an area 1-2” wide, extending from the greater trochanter to within an inch of the patella on the anterior-lateral aspect of the femur;
on the Right side = upper 1/5th indicates cecum, next 3/5ths reflects the ascending colon, last 1/5th reflects the first 2/5ths of the transverse colon;
on the left side = first 1/5th just abover the knee corresponds to the last 3/5ths of transverse colon, the middle 3/5ths reflects the descending colon, and the last 1/5th is the sigmoid; the extreme upper end of the trochanter on the left side = the recto-sigmoid junction
Posterior: transverse process of L2 to the transverse process of l4 creating a triangular area reaching across to the iliac crest.

ant: between the 2nd and 3rd ribs (2nd intercostal space) close to the sternum
post: midway between the tip of the transverse process and spinous process of T2 on the posterior aspect of the transverse process (note: same as bronchus)
inguinal lymph nodes
ant: lowest 2/5th of the sartorius muscle and its attachment to the tibia, and just above the medial femoral condyle
post: on the sacrum close to the ilium
Fallopian tubes

Larynx
ant: upper surface of the 2nd rib, 2-3” lateral from the sternum
post: midway between the tip of the transverse process and spinous process of C2 on the posterior aspect of the transverse process
