1. Anatomical Orientation and Terms

2. ANATOMICAL PLANES
PLANE – imaginary line

3. ANATOMICAL PLANES
SAGITTAL – lengthwise plane dividing the body into right and left parts

4. ANATOMICAL PLANES
MIDSAGITTAL – lengthwise plane along the midline dividing the body into equal right and left parts

5. FRONTAL – lengthwise plane that divides the body into
ANATOMICAL PLANES
FRONTAL – lengthwise plane that divides the body into
dorsal and ventral (superior and inferior) parts

6. TRANSVERSE – horizontal plane that divides the body into
ANATOMICAL PLANES
TRANSVERSE – horizontal plane that divides the body into
cranial and caudal (anterior and posterior) parts

7. ANATOMICAL ORIENTATION
Dorsal = The upper surface or back
Ventral = The underside or front

8. ANATOMICAL ORIENTATION
Superior
Inferior
Superior = Toward the upper (dorsal) body part
Inferior = Toward the under (ventral) body part

9. ANATOMICAL ORIENTATION
Anterior = In front of, toward the head
Posterior = Toward the tail or rear end

10. ANATOMICAL ORIENTATION
Caudal
Cranial
Cranial = Toward the head
Caudal = Toward the tail

11. ANATOMICAL ORIENTATION
Medial = Toward the midline
Lateral = Away from the midline

12. ANATOMICAL ORIENTATION
Proximal = Closest to the point of attachment
Distal = Farthest from the point of attachment
