Frontal Bone Flashcards
Where is the squamous part of the frontal bone
This is the big flat part across the top
Where are the orbital parts
These are the orbital roofs left and right
Where is the nasal part
Top of where the nasal bone would be
Where is the ethnoid notch
seen in the inferior view this is the gap between the orbits
Where are the roofs of the ethnoid air cells
In the inferior view these are holesc along the ethnoid notch
Where is the temporal line
The raised lines from the orbit running backwards
Where is Gabella
The eyebrow bump - ridge which can be used for sexing
Where is the parietal margin
Where the coronal suture would be
Where is the sphenoid margin
Back of the orbits where the sphenoid bone would fuse
Where is the zygomatic process of the frontal
Edges of the orbital ridge
Where is the frontal crest
In the posterior view back of the nasal part
Where is the groove for the superior sagittal crest
On the posterior view it’s the line down the middle
Where are the supraorbital margin
These are the upper orbital edges
Where is the supraorbital notch
Found in the supraorbital margin
Where is the metopic suture (If there is one)
Down the middle of the frontal bone
