OBJECTIVES
 To explain relative body positions and be able to use them in
describing body parts.
 To identify the 3 types of body planes.
 To locate the dif ferent body regions.
“ANATOMICAL POSITION”
 Body is standing erect
 Upper limbs at sides
 Palms forward
RELATIVE POSITIONS
 1 . Superior:
 “above”
 Ex: your nose is superior to
your mouth
 2. Inferior:
 “below”
 Ex: your mouth is inferior to
your nose
RELATIVE POSITIONS
 3. Anterior/ventral:
 “in front”
 Ex: your eyes are anterior to
your brain
 4. Posterior/dorsal:
 “in back”
 Ex: the pharynx is posterior to
the oral cavity
RELATIVE POSITIONS
 5.Medial:
 Closer to the center of the body
 Ex: your nose is medial to your
eyes
 6. Lateral:
 Farther away from the center of
the body
 Ex: your ears are lateral to your
eyes
RELATIVE POSITIONS
 7. Proximal:
 body part that is closer to a point of
attachment to the trunk than another body
part.
 Ex: the elbow is proximal to the wrist
 8. Distal:
 Body part that is farther from a point of
attachment to the trunk than another body
part.
 Ex: the fingers are distal to the wrist
RELATIVE POSITIONS
 9. Superficial:
 Near the surface
 Ex: your epidermis is the most
superficial layer of skin.
“superficial wound” is on this
surface.
 10. Deep:
 Describes parts that are more
internal than superficial parts.
 Ex: the dermis is the deep layer
of skin. A “deep wound” would
be more problematic and
possibly require stitches.

 13. Ipsilateral:
 on the same side
 14. Contralateral:
 on the opposite side
OTHER SIMILAR TERMS
 15. Prone:
 Lying down facing down (on your stomach)
 16. Supine:
 Lying down facing up (on your back)
BODY SECTIONS
 1 . Saggital
 Divides body into left and right
portions lengthwise
 2. Transverse
 Divides body into superior and
inferior portions
 3. Coronal
 Divides body into anterior and
posterior portions
GUESS THE PLANES:
CORONAL, SAGITTAL, OR TRANSVERSE?

 Bone or organ
 A) Cross section
 B) Oblique section
 C) Longitudinal section
