When navigating the body, directional terms help determine the exact location of a structure

 All directional terms are based on the body being in the “anatomical position” • Facing forward • Palms outward

     Superior/inferior (cranial/caudal) Anterior/posterior (ventral/dorsal) Medial/lateral Proximal/distal (usually used with reference to the limbs) Superficial/deep

The knees are __________ to the thighs Your eyebrows are _________ to your nose Your diaphragm is __________ to your stomach Your elbows are ____________ to the wrists

  Imaginary lines used to section the body and its organs These lines run longitudinally, horizontally, and on an angle

 • • median/sagittal cuts body in half if not median, can still be sagittal  • frontal (coronal) cuts the body into front and back halves  • Transverse Cut in half at the stomach  • Oblique Angular cut

  Spaces within the body that contain the internal organs There are 7 cavities – two are closed and 5 are open

1.

  The dorsal cavity Located in the posterior region of the body Contains two smaller cavities Cranial cavity – contains the brain Vertebral cavity – contains the spinal cord

2. The ventral cavity Located in the anterior region of the trunk Contains two smaller cavities separated by the diaphragm  Thoracic cavity – separated into two compartments by the medisternum which contains the aorta, esophagus, trachea, thymus   Pleural cavities – the spaces surrounding each lung Pericardial cavity – the space in which the heart is located  Abdominopelvic cavity Large abdominal cavity – the space that contains the stomach, liver, spleen, gall bladder, kidney, and most of the large and small intestine The pelvic cavity – the space that contains the terminal part of the large intestine, urinary bladder, internal reproductive organs

  In what cavity would you find the spinal cord?
