1 Sagittal cadaver anatomic section showing the relation of the lumbar plexus to the transverse process (TP) and the psoas muscle (PM). The reference marker of the Java application, seen in this figure as a green cross-hair, is over the L3 nerve of the lumbar plexus (same as in Fig. 8-7). The L3 nerve of the lumbar plexus is seen in a fat-filled “intramuscular compartment,” that is, the psoas compartment between the thick fleshy anterior and a thin posterior part of the psoas muscle between the L3 and L4 TP. ESM, erector spinae muscle.
