This document provides an overview of anatomical terminology used to describe the human body. It begins by defining the standard anatomical position as standing upright with arms at the sides and palms facing forward. It then covers terms used for position and direction, such as anterior, posterior, medial, lateral, proximal, and distal. Movement terms like flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, circumduction, pronation, and supination are also defined. The document aims to give students an understanding of anatomical terminology as it relates to the structure and movement of the human body.
The concept of planes and axes of movement can be complex and difficult to understand. This presentation provides a graphical representation of each concept (as it relates to physical activity, exercise and sport) and examples of each to demonstrate each concept in a simpler manner.

Scientific Interpretation of Mritsanrakshan Paddhati as Per Sushruta Samhitaijtsrd
For whole knowledge of body we have to study anatomy subject theoretically also practically. By the dissection of human cadaver. There are several methods of dead body preservation in modern science. In Ayurveda, a special method for dead body preservation is given by Acharya Sushruta. This method is called "Jalnimajjan Paddhati"of Mritsanrakshan". According to Ayurvedic texts Acharya Sushruta is best in Sharir Sthan. He is described many anatomical structures of human body and useful information of every segment of body. He also told about 7 skin layers and their thickness and 7 types of Kalas with their order. This was possible because of complete dissection.

Gluteal region Power point presentation by Dr Monika sharma
PG Dept. of Anatomy,
Shri krishna Ayurvedic govt College, Kurukshetra
The gluteal region refers to the general region of the buttocks that is situated on the posterior aspect of the pelvic girdle. It is bounded anteriorly by the pelvic girdle, superiorly by the iliac crest and inferiorly by the gluteal folds.
The gluteal muscles (buttock muscles) are a muscle group consisting of the gluteus maximus (the largest and thereby strongest muscle in the body), gluteus medius, gluteus minimus and tensor fasciae latae muscles.
Strong gluteals are important for proper pelvic alignment, propulsion during walking and running, and even standing on one leg. Gluteals also help support the lower back during lifting, and help prevent knee injuries.
The thorax or chest is a part of the anatomy of humans and various other animals located between the neck and the abdomen. The thorax includes the thoracic cavity and the thoracic wall. It contains organs including the heart, lungs, and thymus gland, as well as muscles and various other internal structures.it deals with Thoracic wall

Planes of body and Anatomical terms
The anatomical position is the standard reference orientation of the human body.
It is used to provide a clear and consistent mechanism of describing the location of structures
In the anatomical position, the body is upright, directly facing the observer, feet flat and directed forward. The upper limbs are at the body's sides with the palms facing forward.
Sagittal plane
The sagittal plane is a vertical plane which passes through the body longitudinally. It divides the body into a left section and a right section.
A specific sagittal plane is the median sagittal plane – which passes down the midline of the body, separating it into equal halves
Median plane (midsagital plane)
This is a vertical plane that divides the right and left sides of the body lengthwise along with midline into externally symmetrical section.
Coronal plane (frontal plane)
Any vertical side to side plane at right angles to the median plane is called coronal plane.
Transverse plane (horizontal plane)
The transverse plane is a horizontal plane. It is perpendicular to both the sagittal and coronal planes, and parallel to the ground.
If the body is divide into upper and lower section is called transverse plane.
The plane is at right angle to median, sagittal, and coronal planes.
Anatomical Terms of Position
Superior (cranial): Towards the head or upper part of the body; above
Inferior (caudal): Away from the head or toward the lower part of the body; below
Ventral (anterior): Toward or at the front of the body; in front of
Dorsal (posterior): Toward or at the back of the body; behind
Medial: Toward or at the midline of the body
Lateral: Away from the midline of the body
Proximal: Closer to the origin of the body part or point of attachment of a limb to the body trunk
Distal: Away from the origin of a body part or point of attachment of a limb to the body trunk
Superficial (external): Toward or at the body surface
Deep (internal): Away from the body surface
Palmer: Refer to anterior surface of hand.
Planter: Refer to anterior surface of the foot.
Terms of Movement
Flexion: Refers to a movement that decreases the angle between two body parts. Flexion at the elbow is decreasing the angle between the ulna and the humerus
Extension: refers to a movement that increases the angle between two body parts. Extension at the elbow is increasing the angle between the ulna and the humerus
Abduction: is action of moving the limb away from the median plane of the body.
Adduction: is a movement towards the midline. Adduction of the hip squeezes the legs together.
Rotation: Rotation is a movement of body part around its own long axis.
When the interior surface rotate medially the movement is called medial rotation. And if the interior surface rotate laterally the movement is called lateral rotation.
Circumduction: When a part

Anatomical movement - terms & medical information martinshaji
Anatomical terms of movement are used to describe the actions of the skeleton muscles. Muscles contracted to produce joint movement and subsequent movements can be precisely described using the following terminology.
As for the anatomical location, the terms used assume that the body starts in an anatomical position. Most of the movements have an opposite movement, otherwise known as an antagonistic movement. The terms are described herein as antagonistic pairs for ease of understanding.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

In the head & neck and trunk, alternative
terms are many times used.These are:
18
19. Terms of Movement
Various joints of body permit several varieties of
movements. Hence, terms describing movements
are also necessary part of the anatomic terminology.
1. Flexion means a bending movement in which
angle between two bones is decreased.
2. Extension is a straightening motion in which
angle between two bones is increased, i.e., it is
opposite to flexion.
19
21. Flexion/Extension
Plantar flexion:
Point toes/foot downward OR movement of
the foot in which the foot or toes flex
downward towards the sole.
Dorsiflexion:
Point toes/foot upward OR the action of
raising the foot upward towards the shin.
21
23. Hyperextension/Hyperflexion
Excessive extension of the points at a joint
beyond its normal range of motion, thus
resulting in injury is called hyperextension.
Hyperflexion is excessive flexion at a joint.
Hyperextension injuries are common at hinge
joints such as the knee and elbow.
23
26. Terms of Movement
3. Abduction is action of moving the limb away
from the median plane of the body.
Swinging the hands from the sides of the body up
to the shoulder or higher is abduction.
4. Adduction is reverse of abduction. It is the
movement of a body part towards the body’s
midline.
If a person ha their arms straight out at the
shoulders and bring them down to their sides, it is
adduction. 26
28. Circumduction
Movement of a limb or extremity so that the distal
end describes a circle while the proximal end
remains fixed.
Circumduction is a conical movement of a body
part, such as a ball and socket joint or the eye.
It is a combination of flexion, extension,
adduction and abduction.
28
31. Internal rotation/External
rotation
1. Internal rotation (also known as medial
rotation) is rotation towards the center of
the body.
2. External rotation (or lateral rotation) is
rotation away from the center of the body.
Internal and external rotation of the arms
(humerus) occurs at the shoulders, causing the
elbow to rotate.
Internal rotation is rotating a joint towards the
midline; External rotation is rotating a joint away
from the midline.
31
33. Medial rotation/Lateral
rotation
1. Medial rotation is a rotational movement
towards the midline. It is sometimes referred
to as internal rotation.
2. Lateral rotation is a rotating movement away
from the midline. It is sometimes referred to
as external rotation.
Medial and lateral rotation describe
movement of the limbs around their long axis.
33
35. Pronation/Supination
1. Rotation of the hand and forearm so that the
palm faces backwards or downwards called
Pronation.
2. Rotation of the forearm and hand so that the
palm faces forward or upward also, is called
Supination.
35
36. The motion of supination turns the palms
anteriorly or superiorly to the supine (face-
up) position. Another way of thinking about
supination is how someone would move their
hands to look at their palms or to hold a bowl of
soup.
Pronation and supination are a pair of unique
movements possible only in the forearms and
hands, allowing the human body to flip the palm
either face up or face down. In other words,
pronation involves placing the palms into the
prone (face-down) position, like someone
would do when looking at the backs of their
hands.
36
39. Eversion/Inversion
1. Eversion is the movement of the sole of the
foot away from the median plane.
2. Inversion is the movement of the sole
towards the median plane.
Inversion and eversion refer to movements that
tilt the sole of the foot away from (eversion) or
towards (inversion) the midline of the body.
