ABC ANATOMY                                                                    Our Anatomy


     ABC ANATOMY


  1. Anatomical position (p. 1)




        It’s a REFERENCE position as a starting point to describe movements.

        The anatomy of movement involves 3 main systems:

          BONES, elements of the skeleton
          ARTICULATIONS, the link between bones
          MUSCLES, that move the bones


Looking Inward                                                                          1
ABC ANATOMY                                                                    Our Anatomy

  2. Planes of movement (p. 2)

        MEDIAN OR MIDSAGITTAL plane

     We see the movements in profile; the middle line divides the body into symmetrical right
                                         and left halves




          Forward, FLEXION (ankle: DORSIFLEXION)

          Backward, EXTENSION (ankle: PLANTARFLEXION)




Looking Inward                                                                            2
ABC ANATOMY                                                        Our Anatomy

        FRONTAL OR CORONAL plane (p. 3)

     It divides the body into anterior and posterior parts.




          Towards the median plane, ADDUCTION
          Away from the median plane, ABDUCTION
          For the trunk or neck, lateral flexion or side-bending
          Fingers and toes, the reference is:

             axis of the hand (middle finger)
             axis of the foot (2d toe)




Looking Inward                                                              3

        TRANSVERSE OR HORIZONTAL plane (p. 4)

     It divides the body into superior and inferior (upper and lower) parts




           Outward, LATERAL ROTATION (forearm: SUPINATION)
           Inward, MEDIAL ROTATION (forearm: PRONATION)
           For the trunk or neck, right/left rotation




Looking Inward                                                                         4
ABC ANATOMY                                                                  Our Anatomy

        Other anatomical reference TERMS (p. 6)




          ANTERIOR: facing toward or located at the front
          POSTERIOR: “           “  “     “     at the back
          SUPERIOR: “           “   “     “     at the top
          INFERIOR:     “       “   “      “    at the bottom
          MEDIAL: closer to the median plane
          LATERAL: further for the median plane
          INTERNAL or DEEP: inside the body (note: the deep muscles of the foot form the
          superior layer and the superficial ones the inferior layer)
          EXTERNAL or SUPERFICIAL: surface of the body
          PROXIMAL: closer to the trunk or some major joint
          DISTAL: further from      “         “      “    “




Looking Inward                                                                             5

  • 2. ABC ANATOMY Our Anatomy 2. Planes of movement (p. 2) MEDIAN OR MIDSAGITTAL plane We see the movements in profile; the middle line divides the body into symmetrical right and left halves Forward, FLEXION (ankle: DORSIFLEXION) Backward, EXTENSION (ankle: PLANTARFLEXION) Looking Inward 2
  • 3. ABC ANATOMY Our Anatomy FRONTAL OR CORONAL plane (p. 3) It divides the body into anterior and posterior parts. Towards the median plane, ADDUCTION Away from the median plane, ABDUCTION For the trunk or neck, lateral flexion or side-bending Fingers and toes, the reference is: axis of the hand (middle finger) axis of the foot (2d toe) Looking Inward 3
  • 4. ABC ANATOMY Our Anatomy TRANSVERSE OR HORIZONTAL plane (p. 4) It divides the body into superior and inferior (upper and lower) parts Outward, LATERAL ROTATION (forearm: SUPINATION) Inward, MEDIAL ROTATION (forearm: PRONATION) For the trunk or neck, right/left rotation Looking Inward 4
  • 5. ABC ANATOMY Our Anatomy Other anatomical reference TERMS (p. 6) ANTERIOR: facing toward or located at the front POSTERIOR: “ “ “ “ at the back SUPERIOR: “ “ “ “ at the top INFERIOR: “ “ “ “ at the bottom MEDIAL: closer to the median plane LATERAL: further for the median plane INTERNAL or DEEP: inside the body (note: the deep muscles of the foot form the superior layer and the superficial ones the inferior layer) EXTERNAL or SUPERFICIAL: surface of the body PROXIMAL: closer to the trunk or some major joint DISTAL: further from “ “ “ “ Looking Inward 5
