⩥ method of studying the body's structure by focusing attention on a
specific part
examining the arrangement and relationships of the various systemic
structures within it. Answer: Regional Anatomy
⩥ recognizes the body's organization by layers: skin, subcutaneous
tissue, and deep fascia cov- ering the deeper structures of muscles,
skeleton, and cavi- ties, which contain viscera (internal organs). Answer:
Regional anatomy
⩥ the examination of structures of the human body that can be seen
without a microscope. Answer: gross anatomy
⩥ provides information about structures that may be observed or
palpated beneath the skin (palpable) in the living body at rest and in
action. Answer: surface anatomy
,⩥ clinical technique, used with observation and listening for examining
the body. Answer: Palpation
⩥ clinical application of surface anatomy. Answer: physical examination
⩥ -palpation
-observation
-listening. Answer: three techniques for examining the body:
⩥ study of the body's organ systems that work together to carry out
complex functions.. Answer: systemic anatomy
⩥ provides useful information about normal structures in living
individuals, dem- onstrating the effect of muscle tone, body fluids and
pressures, and gravity that cadaveric study does not. Answer:
Radiographic and sectional imaging (radiographic anatomy)
⩥ Diagnostic radiology. Answer: reveals the effects of trauma,
pathology, and aging on normal structures
⩥ Head, neck, thorax, back, abdomen, pelvis or perineum, upper n lower
limb. Answer: Major parts of the body
,⩥ distinguished Scottish anatomist and obstetrician, stated "Dissection
alone teaches us where we may cut or inspect the living body with
freedom and dispatch.". Answer: Dr. William Hunter (1770)
⩥ refers to the body postion as if the person were standing upright with
the:
-head, eyes, and toes directed forward
-arms adjacent to the sides with the palms facing anteriorly
-lower limbs close together with the feet parallel. Answer: anatomical
postion
⩥ vertical plane passing longitudinally through the body, divides the
body into right and left halves. Answer: median plane
⩥ vertical planes passing through the body parallel to the median plane.
Answer: sagittal plane
⩥ vertical planes passing through the body at right angles to the median
plane, dividing the body into anterior and posterior parts. Answer:
frontal (coronal) planes
⩥ horizontal planes passing through the body at right angles to the
median and frontal planes
-dividing the body into superior and inferior parts. Answer: transverse
plane
, ⩥ run lengthwise or parallel to the long axis of the body. Answer:
longitudinal sections
⩥ cross sections, are slices of the body or its parts that are cut at right
angles to the longitudinal axis of the body or of any of its parts. Answer:
transverse sections
⩥ slices of the body or any of its parts that are not cut along the
previously listed anatomical planes. Answer: oblique sections
⩥ structure that is nearer to the vertex, or top of the head
ex: the heart is ___ to the stomach. Answer: superior
⩥ structure that is situated nearer the sole of the foot
ex: the stomach is ___________ to the heart. Answer: inferior
⩥ toward the feet or tail region. Answer: caudal
⩥ denotes the back surface of the body
ex: the heel is _____ to the toes. Answer: posterior (dorsal)
⩥ denotes the front surface of the body
