Phrenic Nerve Motor Innervation to the Diaphragm Diagram

The phrenic nerve (C3-C5) provides sole motor innervation to diaphragm (plus sensory to pericardium/pleura). It descends on scalenus anterior, through thorax along pericardium to central tendon, ensuring breathing despite cervical…

The Aortic Valve Sinuses and Coronary Arteries Diagram

The aortic valve sinuses (of Valsalva) form three pocket-like dilations just above the aortic valve cusps. The right sinus gives origin to the right coronary artery, the left sinus to…

Somites Adjacent to the Neural Tube Diagram

In the Somites Adjacent to the Neural Tube diagram you watch early embryonic blocks of tissue lined up along the developing spinal cord. These somites will eventually give rise to…

Overview of the Peritoneal Abdominal Cavity Diagram

The peritoneal abdominal cavity includes parietal peritoneum lining walls, visceral covering organs, and mesenteries/omenta suspending structures. Greater/lesser sacs, transverse mesocolon, and root of mesentery divide spaces for fluid movement.

Nerves Innervating the Urinary SystemN

Nerves innervating the urinary system include sympathetic from T10-L2 inhibiting bladder contraction and promoting sphincter tone for storage, parasympathetic from S2-4 stimulating detrusor and relaxing internal sphincter for voiding, somatic…

Cardiac Muscle

An illustration of cardiac muscle highlights the unique structure that allows the heart to contract continuously without fatigue. The diagram shows branched muscle fibers connected by intercalated discs, which contain…

Course of the Superior Epigastric Artery Diagram

The superior epigastric artery (from internal thoracic) descends in rectus sheath, anastomoses with inferior epigastric, supplying rectus abdominis and anterior abdominal wall. It forms part of Hesselbachs triangle boundary.

Overview of the Cerebrum Diagram

The cerebrum overview shows two hemispheres divided by longitudinal fissure, with frontal (planning, motor), parietal (sensory, spatial), temporal (auditory, memory), occipital (visual) lobes, plus insula deep in lateral sulcus and…

The Superficial Veins of the Upper Limb Cephalic and Basilic Veins Diagram

Superficial upper limb veins: cephalic (lateral, thumb to deltoid/axillary), basilic (medial, little finger to axillary), median cubital (connects cephalic/basilic at elbow). Theyre common IV sites.

Layers of the Thoracolumbar Fascia Diagram

Thoracolumbar fascia layers: anterior (psoas/quadratus lumborum), middle (between erector spinae/quadratus), posterior (covering erector spinae). They enclose paraspinal muscles, provide attachment for obliques/transversus.

Hip Add Abd Diagram

The Hip Add Abd diagram (likely adduction/abduction) illustrates hip movements: adductors (magnus, longus, brevis, gracilis, pectineus) pulling the thigh medially, abductors (gluteus medius/minimus, tensor fasciae latae) moving it laterally. It…

Organs

Heart Wall

The heart wall has three distinct layers working together to pump blood tirelessly. The inner endocardium is smooth endothelium over connective tissue, preventing clots and providing a low-friction surface. The…

Medullary Pyramids Diagram

This Medullary Pyramids diagram (likely brainstem) depicts the ventral medulla oblongata with its paired pyramidal tractscorticospinal fibers descending to decussate at the pyramid level before continuing into the spinal cord…

Parts of the Parietal Pleura Diagram

Parts of parietal pleura: costal (chest wall), diaphragmatic (diaphragm), mediastinal (mediastinum), cervical (apex above first rib). Reflections form recesses (costodiaphragmatic deepest); fluid accumulates there in effusion.

Palmar View of the Thenar Muscles of the Thumb and Hand Labelled TeachMeAnatomy Diagram

Palmar view of thenar muscles shows abductor pollicis brevis (superficial), flexor pollicis brevis (superficial/deep heads), opponens pollicis (deep to abductor), all from flexor retinaculum/scaphoid/trapezium to thumb proximal phalanx/first metacarpal. Median…

Histology of StomachN

The stomach's histology reveals four main layers adapted for mechanical and chemical breakdown of food, starting with a mucosa of simple columnar epithelium rich in goblet cells secreting protective mucus…

Cutaneous Innervation to the Upper Limb Diagram

Cutaneous innervation of the upper limb includes dermatomes from C5-T1: axillary (regimental badge), musculocutaneous (lateral forearm), median (palm/thumb-index-middle), ulnar (little/ring), radial (dorsal hand). Overlap helps in nerve lesion mapping.
