6 Φεβ 2018 · The human body has three axis and planes: frontal, sagittal, and horizontal. Each plane and axis are responsible for specific movements in our body. The body’s movements are described using three imaginary flat planes and three axes intersecting them.
11 Ιουλ 2023 · Learn about the three anatomical body planes (coronal, sagittal, and transverse) and the movements that occur in each. The transverse plane divides the body into upper and lower halves and involves rotation or horizontal movement.
A coronal or frontal plane divides the body into dorsal and ventral (back and front, or posterior and anterior) portions. A transverse plane, also known as an axial plane or cross-section, divides the body into cranial and caudal (head and tail) portions.
An axis is a straight line around which an object rotates. Movement at the joint takes place in a plane about an axis. There are three axes of rotation. Sagittal axis - passes horizontally from posterior to anterior and is formed by the intersection of the sagittal and transverse planes.
28 Οκτ 2021 · Anatomical terms. To understand anatomical planes, it is important to be familiar with basic anatomical terms: Proximal: towards the main trunk of the body. Distal: away from the main trunk of the body. Superior: upper. Inferior: lower. Superficial: near the surface of the body. Deep: away from the surface of the body. Medial: towards the midline.
14 Σεπ 2021 · A structure that is anterior to another is closer to the front of the body when the body is in anatomical position. A feature that is posterior to another is closer to the back of the body when the body is in anatomical position.
7 Σεπ 2024 · Medial & Lateral Rotation. Medial and lateral rotation describe movement of the limbs around their long axis: Medial rotation is a rotational movement towards the midline. It is sometimes referred to as internal rotation.
