DT: superior
part is above another part
DT: inferior
part is below another part
DT: anterior
part is towards front
DT: posterior
part is towards the back
DT: medial
closer to midline (middle) of body, than another part
DT: lateral
toward side, away from midline
DT: bilateral
paired structures (one on each side)
DT: ipsilateral
structures on the same side
DT: contralateral
structures on opposite side
DT: proximal
part closer to point of attachment at trunk of body(elbow is proximal to wrist)
DT: distal
part is further from point of attachment at trunk of body(wrist is distal to elbow)
DT: superficial
near surface
DT: deep
describes internal parts
DT: transverse
divides body into superior/inferior portions (top/bottom)
DT: sagittal
lengthwise cut dividing body left and right, facing forwardif cut follow midline = median sagittal
