  1. What are the 2 main types of bone markings

  2. BONE MARKINGS Every bump, groove, and hole has a name on your bones

  3. Bone Markings • Two types of bone markings: • Projections (aka processes) that grow out from the bone • Depressions (cavities) that indent the bone

  4. Joint Projections • 1) Condyle: Rounded articular projection Condyle

  5. Joint Projections • 2) Head: bony expansion on a narrow neck • 3) Facet: smooth, nearly flat articular surface

  6. Joint Projections • 4) Ramus: Armlike bar of bone

  7. Ligament/Tendon Projections 1) Crest: Narrow ridge of bone (Line: smaller than a crest) 2) Epicondyle: Raised area on or above a condyle ULNA

  8. 3) Tubercle: Small rounded projection 4) Tuberosity: large rounded or roughened projection 5) Trochanter: very large, blunt projection (only on femur) Proximal Tibia

  9. 6) Spine: Sharp, pointed projection Thoracic Vertebrae

  10. DEPRESSIONS • Allow blood vessels or nerves to pass through. 1) Meatus: (me - A- tus) Canal or tube

  11. Depressions 2) Fossa: shallow basin 3) Fissure: narrow, slit-like opening

  12. Depressions 4) Sinus: Cavity within a bone; filled with air and lined with mucous membranes 5) Foramen: Round or oval opening Foramen Magnum

  13. Depressions 6) Sulcus, Groove or Furrow: a shallow depression

  14. Projections Condyle Head Facet Ramus Crest Epicondyle Tubercle Tuberosity Trochanter Spine Depressions Meatus Fossa Fissure Sinus Sulcus or Groove or Furrow Foramen Review:
