  1. BODY PLANES, DIRECTIONS, CAVITIES

  2. BODY PLANES • LINE THROUGH THE BODY AT VARIOUS PARTS TO SEPARATE THE BODY INTO SECTIONS

  3. TRANSVERSE PLANE • ONE OF THREE MAIN PLANES

  4. TRANSVERSE PLANE • DIVIDES BODY INTO TOP AND BOTTOM HALF

  5. SUPERIOR • BODY PARTS ABOVE OTHER PARTS

  6. INFERIOR • BODY PARTS BELOW OTHER PARTS

  7. EXAMPLE • ANKLE IS SUPERIOR TO THE FOOT BUT INFERIOR TO THE KNEE

  8. CRANIAL • BODY PARTS LOCATED NEAR THE HEAD

  9. CAUDAL • BODY PARTS LOCATED NEAR THE SACRAL REGION OF THE SPINAL COLUMN OR TAIL

  10. MIDSAGITTAL OR MEDIAN PLANE • SECOND OF THREE PLANES

  11. MIDSAGITTAL OR MEDIAN PLANE • DIVIDES THE BODY INTO RIGHT AND LEFT SIDES

  12. MEDIAL • BODY PARTS CLOSE TO MIDLINE OR PLANE

  13. LATERAL • BODY PARTS AWAY FROM THE MIDLINE OR PLANE

  14. FRONTAL OR CORONAL • THIRD PLANE OF THE BODY

  15. FRONTAL OR CORONAL • DIVIDES THE BODY INTO FRONT AND BACK SECTIONS

  16. VENTRAL OR ANTERIOR • BODY PARTS IN FRONT OF THE BODY

  17. DORSAL OR POSTERIOR • BODY PARTS IN BACK OF THE BODY

  18. PROXIMAL AND DISTAL • TWO OTHER DIRECTIONAL TERMS • USED TO DISCRIBE RELATIONSHIP TO

  19. PROXIMAL • BODY PARTS CLOSE TO THE POINT O R REFERENCE • EXAMPLE MAIN TRUNK OF THE BODY IS A POINT OF REFERENCE TO THE ARMS AND LEGS

  20. DISTAL • BODY PARTS AWAY FROM THE POINT OF REFERENCE • EXAMPLE: TOES ARE DISTAL TO THE THIGH

  21. BODY CAVITIES • SPACES WITHIN THE BODY THAT CONTAIN VITAL ORGANS

  22. DORSAL OR POSTERIOR CAVITY • ONE OF TWO MAIN BODY CAVITIES • ONE LONG CONTINUOUS CAVITY ON BACK OF THE BODY • DIVIDED INTO TWO SECTIONS • CRANIAL CAVITY • SPINAL CAVITY

  23. CRANIAL CAVITY • CONTAINS THE BRAIN

  24. SPINAL CAVITY • CONTAINS THE SPINAL CORD

  25. VENTRAL OR ANTERIOR CAVITIES • LARGER THAN DORSAL CAVITY • SEPERATED INTO TWO DISTINCT CAVITIES BY THE DIAPHRAGM

  26. THORACIC CAVITY • LOCATED IN CHEST • CONTAINS HEART LUNGS, AND THE LARGE BLOOD VESSELS

  27. ABDOMINAL CAVITY • DIVIDED INTO UPPER AND LOWER PART

  28. UPPER ABDOMINAL CAVITY • STOMACH, SMALL INTESTINES, MOST OF LARGE INTESTINES, LIVER, GALLBLADDER, PANCREAS AND SPLEEN

  29. LOWER ABDOMINAL CAVITY OR PELVIC CAVITY • CONTAINS URINARY BLADDER, REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS, AND LAST PART OF LARGE INTESTINES

  30. QUADRANTS • CREATES RIGHT UPPER QUADRANT (RUQ) • LEFT UPPER QUADRANT (LUQ) • RIGHT LOWER QUADRANT (RLQ) • LEFT LOWER QUADRANT(LLQ)

  31. ABDOMINAL REGIONS • DIVIDED INTO REGIONS OR SECTIONS BECAUSE IT IS SO LARGE

  32. REGIONS

  33. EPIGASTRIC • UPPER CENTER REGION ABOVE THE STOMACH

  34. UMBILICAL • MIDDLE CENTER REGION BY UMBILICUS

  35. HYPOGASTRIC OR PELVIC • LOWER CENTER REGION

  36. HYPOCHONDRIAC • ON EITHER SIDE OF THE RIBS

  37. LUMBAR • EITHER SIDE BY LARGE BONES OF SPINAL CORD

  38. ILIAC OR INGUINAL • EITHER SIDE OF THE GROIN
