What does midsagittal mean?
Divides body into equal left and right halves
What does frontal and coronal mean?
The body is divided into anterior and posterior sections
What does transverse and horizontal mean?
The body is divided into superior and inferior sections
What does parasagittal mean?
The body is divided into unequal left and right sections
What’s the difference between superior and inferior?
Superior is above, while inferior is below
What’s the difference between anterior and posterior?
Anterior Is toward the front, posterior is toward the back
What is the difference between medial and lateral?
Medial divides the body into equal parts, lateral is away from the midline; towards the side. The nose is medial to the eyes. The ears are lateral to the eyes.
Bilateral? Ipsilateral? Contralateral?
Bilateral refers to paired structures, one on each side of the midline. Ipsilateral refers to structures on the same side. Contralateral reversed structures on the opposite side. The lungs are bilateral. The right lung in the right kidney are ipsilateral. A patient with a fractured right leg would have to bear weight on the contralateral, in this case, the left lower limb.
What’s the difference between proximal and distal?
Proximal describes a part closer to a point of attachment to the trunk than another body part. Dist sto the opposite of proximal, meaning a particular body part is further from a point of attachment to the trunk. The elbow is proximal to the wrist. The fingers are distal to the wrist.
What’s the difference between superficial and deep?
Superficial means near the surface. Deep describes more internal parts. The epidermidis is the superficial layer of the skin. The dermis is the deep layer of the skin.
