HUMAN ANATOMY
• Dissection (also called anatomization)
Process of disassembling and observing something to
determine its internal structure and as an aid to
discerning the functions and relationships of its
components.
E. Radiological anatomy:-
• The study of the bones and deeper organs by plan and
contrast radiograph by ultrasound and computerized
tomography (CT) scans.
F. Comparative anatomy:-
• Relates to the comparison of anatomical structures (both
gross and microscopic) in different animals
H. Physical anthropology:-relates to the comparison of the
anatomy of different races of humans.
I. Applied anatomy (clinical Anatomy):-Deals with the
application of the anatomical knowledge to the medical
and surgical practice.
J. Experimental anatomy:-The study of the factors which
influence and determine the form structure and function
of deferent parts of the body.
K. Genetics:-Deals with the study of the information present
in the chromosomes.
ANATOMICAL PLANE
Coronal planes
• Oriented vertically and divide the body into anterior and
posterior parts.
Sagittal planes
• Oriented vertically, but are at right angles to the coronal
planes and divide the body into right and left parts.
Median sagittal plane.
• The plane that passes through the center of the body
dividing it into equal right and left halves
1. Flexion
• Movement in which angle of the joints is reduces.
2. Extension
• Movement in which angle of the joints is increase
3. Adduction
• Movement toward midline of the body in the coronal
plane
4. Abduction
• Movement away from the midline of the body in the
coronal plane
• Medial rotation : Inward rotation
Eversion
• Is the opposite movement of the foot so that the sole
faces in a lateral direction
The anatomical position
• Is the standard reference position of the body used to
describe the location of structures.
1. Cranial cavity
• Enclosed by the skull and contains Brain and lined by
Meninges
2. Vertebral canal
• Enclosed by the spine and contains the spinal cord and
lined by meninges
Ventral body cavity
1. Thoracic cavity
• Enclosed by the ribcage and contains the lungs and heart
and lined by pleura and pericardium
2. Abdomino-pelvic cavity
• Enclosed by the ribcage and pelvis and contains the
kidneys, ureters, stomach, intestines, liver, gallbladder,
and pancreas and lined by peritoneum.
A. Abdominal cavity
• Thoracic diaphragm AND pelvic inlet
B. Pelvic cavity
• Pelvic inlet (the superior opening of the pelvis) and pelvic
floor.
