12. Anatomical Planes
Sagittal plane
• The plane dividing the
body into right and left
portions
• Midsagittal or median
are names for the plane
dividing the body into
equal right and left
halves

13. Anatomical Planes
Frontal plane
• The plane dividing the
body into front and back
portions
• Also called the Coronal
plane

14. Anatomical Planes
Transverse plane
• The horizontal plane
dividing the body into
upper and lower
portions
• Also called the
Horizontal plane

15. Body Planes and Sections
 Oblique section through the trunk
Dr Setareh Javanmardy 15

16. Anterior = ant.
(Ventral = vent.)
Posterior = post.
(Dorsal = dors.)
Superior = sup.
(Cranial = cran.)
Inferior = inf.
Caudal = caud

17. Proximal = prox.
Distal = dist.

External (Outer) = ext.
Superficial = superf.
Profundous or Deep

21. Anatomical Axes
-a lot of our movement occurs via our joints
-axes are used to describe the direction of
movement at joints
Antero-
posterior
-horizontal;
extends from
front to back
-rotate side to
side
Horizontal
-horizontal; runs from one side of the body to the
other
-rotate top to bottom
Longitudinal
-vertical; extends
superior (head) to
inferior (foot)
-rotate around

22.  Flexion
 Extension
Dr Setareh Javanmardy
22

23.  Abduction: Moving the
part away from the body
 Adduction: Moving the
part towards the body
23
Dr Setareh Javanmardy

24.  Medial Rotation:
Inwards rotation
 Lateral Rotation:
Outwards rotation
24
Dr Setareh Javanmardy

25. Circumduction:
Combination in
sequence of the
movements of flexion,
extension, abduction
and adduction
25
Dr Setareh Javanmardy

26.  Pronation: Rotation of
the forearm so that the
palm is turned
backwards
 Supination: Rotation
of the forearm so that
the palm is turned
forwards
26
Dr Setareh Javanmardy

27.  Dorsiflexion: Upward
flexion of the foot
 Plantarflexion:
Downward flexion of
the foot
27
Dr Setareh Javanmardy

28.  Inversion : movement
of the sole of foot in
which sole faces
inwards or medially
 Eversion: movement of
the sole of foot in which
sole faces outwards or
laterally
28
Dr Setareh Javanmardy

29. Retraction
• Moving a part backward
Protraction
• Moving a part forward
Elevation
• Raising a part
Depression
• Lowering a part
