  1. General Anatomy Medical Terminology

  2. Somatotypes • Ectomorph • Small Bone Lean Body • Mesomorph • Muscular Physique • Endomorph • Round soft body

  3. Anatomical Position • Trunk erect • Arms at side • Palms forward • Legs Straight

  4. Planes of Motion

  5. Sagittal Plane • Divides the body into left and right • Passes from front to back

  6. Frontal Plane • Divides the body into front and back • Passes from side to side

  7. Transverse Plane • Divides body into top and bottom • Passes perpendicular to the long axis of the body

  8. Anatomical Direction

  9. Superior Inferior Anterior Posterior Higher than another structure Lower than another Structure In front of another structure Behind another structure Anatomical Direction

  10. Superior Inferior Posterior Anterior Higher than another structure Lower than another structure Behind another structure In front of another structure Anatomical Direction

  11. Medial Lateral Proximal Distal Closer to the long axis of the body Farther from the long axis of the body Structure closer to the beginning of the extremity Structure farther from the beginning of the extremity Anatomical Direction

  12. Lateral Medial Distal Proximal Farther from the long axis of the body Closer to the long axis of the body Structure farther from the beginning of the extremity Structure Closer to the beginning of the extremity Anatomical Direction

  13. Superficial Deep Nearer to the surface Farther from the surface Anatomical Direction

  14. Flexion Extension Abduction Adduction Decrease in the angle of a joint Increase in the angle of a joint Movement away from the midline of the body Movement toward the midline of the body Movement

  15. Flexion Extension Abduction Adduction Decrease in the angle of a joint Increase in the angle of a joint Movement away from the midline of the body Movement toward the midline of the body Movement

  16. Dorsiflexion Plantar Flexion Inversion Eversion Flexion of the foot at the ankle Extension of the foot at the ankle Sole of the foot turned inward Sole of the foot turned outward Movement

  17. Dorsiflexion Plantar Flexion Inversion Eversion Flexion of the foot at the ankle Extension of the foot at the ankle Sole of the foot turned inward Sole of the foot turned outward Movement

  18. Supination Pronation Rotation Palms upward Palms downward Pivot motion about the long axis of the body Movement

  19. Supination Pronation Rotation Circumduction Palms upward Palms downward Pivot motion about the long axis of the body Combination of Abduction,Adduction and Rotation Movement
