L
Lumbar
RA
Rheumatoid Arthritis
T
Thoracic
internal movement
involves contraction & relaxation of muscles in viscera (internal organs)
external movement
involves contraction & relaxation of muscles that are attached to the bones
oste/o
bones - assist body in movement by serving as points of attachment for muscles
my/o muscul/o
muscles - bands of strong tissue that are responsible for movement
hematopoiesis
formation of all types of blood cells in bone marrow
Orthopedics abbr ortho
branch of medicine concerned w/ preserving & restoring function of skeletal system
Orthopedist - corrects deformities in children, bones more pliable
Rheumatologists
physicians specialize in nonsurgical treatment of joint problems
Physiatrist
physician focuses on rehabilitation of muscles, nerves, & bones after trauma or disease
Chiropractor
practitioner who uses spinal manipulation to treat musculoskeletal & nervous system conditions
physical therapist
practitioner who uses exercises to improve mobility & function
Occupational therapist
practitioner who helps patients perform ADLs
osseous tissue
bone composed of dense, hard connective tissue, osseous means bony
osteocytes
bone cells
collagen
dense connective tissue strands
chondr/o
cartilage, osseous tissue w/o calcium salts
osteoblasts
* immature bone cells
* smaller
* produce bony tissue that replaces cartilage during ossification
* produce enzyme that causes formation of calcium phosphate that makes bone tissues hard (ossified)
* they require calcium, phosphorus (P), & vitamin D
ossification
process of bone formation
osteoclasts
