Anatomy (Regional)

The scientific study of the structures of the body and the relationship of these structures to one another.

Radiopaque

White image on x-ray, dense tissue or bone that absorbs more rays

Radiolucent

Black image on x-ray, a tissue or organ of lower density, allows more rays to pass through it

MRI

Magnetic Resonance Imaging. SNo radiation, preferable to x-ray. Better to distinguish soft tissue (i.e. ligaments and muscles)

Sagittal Plane

Divide body into left and right parts

Median Plane

Divides body into EQUAL left and right parts. Only one of these planes in the body, but also could be "median plane of hand/foot"

Coronal Plane (Frontal Plane)

Divides the body into anterior (ventral) and posterior (dorsal) parts. No median plane.

Transverse Plane (Axial Plane)

Divides the body into superior (cranial) and inferior (caudal) parts, cross sections.

Rotation

Movement in the Transverse Plane

Longitudinal Section

Can be cut in the median, sagittal or coronal planes.

Laterality: Unilateral, Bilateral, Ipsilateral, and Contralateral

Flexion and Extension

Always done in the SAGITTAL PLANE. 
Flexion=Anterior, Extension=Posterior (except knee)

Always done in the SAGITTAL PLANE.


Flexion=Anterior, Extension=Posterior (except knee)

Abduction and Adduction

Always done in the CORONAL PLANE.

Always done in the CORONAL PLANE.

Pronation and Supination

Only in the forearm

Only in the forearm

Circumduction

Combination of flexion, abduction, extension and adduction.

Combination of flexion, abduction, extension and adduction.

Special movements of the Thumb

Thumb is rotated 90 degrees so movements are a bit different.

Abduction and Adduction of the DIGITS

All in relation to middle finger

Other weird movements


Axial Skeleton vs. Appendicular Skeleton. Cartilage

Axial=yellow (protects vital things)
Appendicular- purple, includes scapula and clavicle.
Costal cartilage-ribs
Articular cart- joints

Appendicular- purple, includes scapula and clavicle.


Costal cartilage-ribs


Articular cart- joints


Functions of Bones

-Protection of vital organs


-Structural support of body


-Acts as levers for muscles to produce movement


-Reservoir for calcium and phosphorous


-Contains marrow where blood cells form

Types of Bones (3)

1. Spongy bone (trabecular, cancellous)


2. Compact bone (cortical, dense)


3. Medullary (marrow) cavity



Red marrow- active in blood formation (kids)


Yellow marrow- inert and fatty

Long Bone

Humerus, phalanges, clavicle etc

Short Bone

tarsals, carpals

Flat Bones

Some cranial vault bones, ribs, sternum

Irregular Bone

Vertebrea, sphenoid

Sesamoid Bone

Patella (develop within tendons)

Pneumatic bones

Mastoid part of temporal bone, paranasal sinus, filled with air. Mostly in the skull to lighten the weight.

Accessory (supernumerary) Bones

In Foot

Elevations (bones markings)

Crest Trochanter


Line Tubercle


Protuberance Tuberosity


Epicondyle


Malleolus


Spine


Process


Depressions (bone markings)

Fossa


Grooce


Notch

Articulations

Condyle


Facet



Where two bones meet, very smooth from rubbing by articulate cartilage.

Holes

Foramen (pl/ foramina)

Ossification

Process of bone formation

Osteoblast

Bone forming cells

Osteocytes

bones cells

Osteoclasts

bone resorption cells

Chondrocytes

cartilage cells

Chondroblasts

cartilage forming cells

Intramembranous Ossification (Direct Ossification)

Mesenchyme (embryological tissue)--->Bone



Rapid Process


Flat bones of the skull only

Endochondral Ossification (indirect ossification)

Mesenchyme (embryological tissue)---> Cartilage---->Bone
 
Slower Process
Most bones

Mesenchyme (embryological tissue)---> Cartilage---->Bone



Slower Process


Most bones

Endochondral Ossification Ctn.

Bone Growth (general understanding)

The DIAPHYSIS grows at the region of the growth plate and METAPHYSIS by proliferation of cartilage.  Eventually bone replaces cartilage at growth plate; growth ceases and diaphysis fuses with epiphysis- SYNOSTOSIS.

Timeline of endochondral ossificaiton

Also, generally, females fuse before males.
 
Short bones develop the same except no secondary center (except in foot)

Short bones develop the same except no secondary center (except in foot)

Q: Why endochondral ossification? Why not have cells at the ends of the bones to produce growth?

Moving joint would damage growing tissue, and the bone must be capable of supporting loads.

Vascular and Innervation of Bone

Upper Limb

-freely mobile organ or manual activity
-Not weight bearing; stability lost for mobility
-Divided-shoulder, arm, elbow, forearm, wrist and hand.

Clavicle (fractures)

Commonly fractured: indirectly- force transmitted thru upper limb or directly-falling onto shoulder. When fractured, sternocleidomastoid muscle pulls medial part superiorly and lateral part (and shoulder) droops
