QuestionAnswer
Oblique plane any angle between the vertical and horizontal.
Horizontal plane is also called cross-sectional or transverse or axial
The plane that runs axial to the top of the hips at the iliac crest (L4) interiliac plane
The anatomic landmark you probably shouldn't palpate IRL The symphysis pubis
midcoronal plane is also called the midaxillary plane - runs through the armpits
This plane is formed by the biting surfaces of the upper and lower teeth with jaws closed occlusal plane
The heart and grater vessels are contained in this cavity the thoracic cavity
The major blood vessels and the bladder are in this cavity the abdominopelvic/abdominal cavity
The superior and inferior borders of the abdomen superior- diaphragm inferior- pelvic inlet/aperture (circular portion at the bottom)
defined as the variations on the human body body habitus important because it determines size and location of abdominal organs + diaphram
The two body habitus which are considered average Sthenic and hyposthenic
Sthenic body habitus that is average
Asthenic body habitus that is thin and frail. can remeber by models being the 'esthetic'. considered an EXTREME
Hyposthenic smaller body size, but not frail
Hypersthenic larger body size- EXTREME
Bones store what calcium, phosphorus, and other salts
bones produce what red and white blood cells
This division of the skeleton protects the brain and trunk and is the basis of support the axial skeleton -- axis=axial
This division of the skeleton is for movement the appendicular skeleton -- limbs === appendages== appendicular
yellow marrow stores __ and is made at __. fat duh in the length of long bones in the medullary cavity
red marrow makes___ and is made at ____. rbc duh in the end of long bones in the medullary cavity
The hollow cavity inside bones where marrow is made medullary
What type of bone contains trabeculae spongy bone
The development and formation of bones. begins when ossification the 2nd month of embryonic life
the two ways in which bones can form (ossification) intramembranous and endochondral
flat bones are formed by intramembranous ossification= bone forms without ever being cartilage
Endochondral ossification bone growth where is begins as cartilage
primary vs secondary ossification primary- occurs in gestation secondary- after birth
what bones are formed by endochondral ossification long bones, short bones, and irregular bones
Epiphyses growth plates where secondary ossification happens
example of short bones carpals and tarsals
examples of flat bones cranium and sternum
examples of irregulaer bones facial bones and verterbrae
sesamoid bones develop close to tendons small and oval
largest sesamoid bone patella
The study of joints/arrticulates arthrology
Bones are classified as functional and ___ structural
Type of joint this is immovable synarthroses skull bones
Type of joint that is slightly movable amphiarthrosis vertebrae
Type of joint that is freely movable Diarthroses/synovial shoulder, hip
what type of joints are in a capsule and have bursa for cushioning synovial
The functional classification of joints is based on their ____. mobility
The structural classification of joints is based on their ____. connective tissues that surround them.
Three structural classifications of fibrous joints syndesmosis- suture gomphosis
Inferior tibiofibular joint is what type of joint fibrous and syndesmosis because it is held by fibrous structures and is not movable.
Suture joints are only found in the ___ and are considered ___ joints skull and fibrous joints
Gomphosis joints are found only in ____ and are considered____. roots of the teeth and fibrous joints
T/F: Cartilaginous joints do not have a cavity true- they have no cavity
T/F: Cartilaginous joints are very movable False! cartilaginous joints are virtually immovable
Cartilaginous joints that are slightly movable, have fibrocartilage, and are designed for shock obsorption Symphysis joints
Example of symphysis (cartilaginous) joint symphysis pubis
Cartilaginous joints that are immovable with rigid cartilage Synchondrosis
example of a synchondrosis joint growth plate. epiphyses
example of gliding synovial joint carpals where they meet metacarpals
example of hinge synovial joint elbow, knee
example of pivot synovial joint vertebrae- can twist around an axis
example of ellipsoid synovial joint where the carpals meet the radius, allows for abduction, adduction, backwards and forwards.
example of saddle synovial joint thumb bone where it meets carpal- trapezium
a spinal fracture where the bone vertebrae can collapse. commonly from falls compression
a break that does not go all the way through a bone. common in children greenstick
fracture where the bone pierces through the skin compound
ipsilateral same side
contralateral opposite side
plantar sole of the foot
dorsum top of the foot
defined as the path the xrays take through the tube to the IR projection
AP vs PA projection CR enters the anterior surface and exits the posterior CR enters the posterior surface and exits the anterior
T/F: the projection (AP/PA) is still specified in oblique shots true! still needs to specify AP or PA
longitudinal angle of the CR of 10 degrees or more axial projection
CR directed along the outer margin of a curved body surface tangential
in oblique positioning, the position is named by the side of the body closest to the ____ table/IR. So if a patient was facing the IR and their right side was closer, the position would be called right anterior oblique
decubitus position a recumbent position where the pt is on their side for a decube shot
flexion and extension flexion- bending a joint. like when you flex your biceps extension to enxtend
Rotation of forearm so that the palm is down pronate
Rotation of forearm so that the palm is up supinate
what vertebral level is the interiliac crest L4
what is periosteum peri-around, Ost-bone, eum-tissue tough tissue that surrounds the bone
endosteum tissue that lines the medullary cavity
synovial joints have accessory tissue called bursae and meniscus
Rounded process at the end of long bones condyle
Small, smooth-surfaced articular process facet
hook shaped process hamulus
malleolus club shaped process
bone feature that is long and pointed styloid
the large round proximal features of the femurs trochanters
bone feature that is a ditch or hollow space fossa.
fracture where the bone is in many pieces comminuted
