INTRODUCTION TO MUSCULOSKELETAL ANATOMY.
APPROACHES TO THE DESCRIPTION AND DISCUSSION OF ANATOMICAL STRUCTURES.
Anatomy is the study of biological structures. Human anatomy focuses on the study of structure in Modern Homo Sapiens. Observation, describing, recording and using anatomical knowledge are major activities of the subject.
Description. Description of anatomical structures is based on observation and the use of an agreed upon standard nomenclature. One such system is the Nomina Anatomica and the more recent Terminologia Anatomica.
Macroscopic Description. Macroscopic description involves observation with the unaided eye and covers structures from about one millimetre to about one metre in size. Table 1.
There are two main ways of identifying structures both based upon description, By their individual characteristics( systems, ex situ description) and by their location and relationships (topographical, in situ description)
Systems. Involves the study or description of individual structures. This can be approached in two further ways. By tissue systems eg bones, joints, muscles etc. or by physiological systems eg cardiovascular, respiratory etc. Here a tissue approach will be used.
Topographical. Involves the study or description of regions and the relationships of the structures within the region, eg the shoulder region, cubital fossa, the hand. The complex three dimensional aspect of anatomy.
Combined. There is
