SKULL NI BOOMER, BRITNEY & BARON Flashcards
- connects the
inferior border of the orbit to the EAM and is known as the Reids Base line.(Anthropological
base line)
Infraorbito Meatal Line (IOML)
connects the superior border of the orbit to the EAM.
Supraorbito Meatal Line (SOML)
The most common
positioning line used for head work which runs from the outer canthus to the EAM known as
Radiographic Baseline
Orbito Meatal Line (OML
– is an imaginary line between the
Interpupillary Line
- an imaginary line from
the glabella to the anterior aspect of the alveolar
process of the maxilla.
Glabelloalveolar line (GAL
is a line from glabella to
Glabellomeatal Line (GML
is a line connecting the
Acanthiomeatal Line (AML
– is a line running from the
mental point to the EAM
Mentomeatal Line (MML)
midline point at the junction of the upper lip and the nasal septum. Sub-nasal point
which is the reference point for waters projection
Acanthion
the midpoint of this triangular
area of the chin as it appears from the front..
Mental point
inner junction of the eyelid.
Meeting of the eyelids medially.
Inner Canthus –
outer junction of the eyelid.
Meeting of the eyelids laterally.
Outer Canthus
the lower posterior angle on each side of the jaw or mandible.
Gonion-
- the point on the skull to the junction of the coronal and sagittal suture
Bregma
the cranio-metric at the junction of the sagittal and lambdoid sutures
Lambda
protrusion at the back of the skull. External occipital protruberance (EOP
inion
cartilaginous projection in front of the ear.
tragus
2 fused nasal bones form the bridge of the nose
nasal bone
the topmost vault of the skull.
vertex
smooth prominence between the eyebrow and above the bridge of the nose. It connects the bilateral superior border of the orbit
glabella
form the middle segment of the
cranial dome, joined with each other along the midline by the sagittal suture. The left and right forms much of the superior and lateral portions
of the cranium.
parietal bone
forms the anterior third of the
cranial dome, forms part of the cranial cavity as well
as the fore head, the brow ridges and the nasal
cavity.
frontal bone
