Lesser Occipital Nerve Course Diagram

The lesser occipital nerve (C2 from cervical plexus) ascends posterior to ear, supplies skin behind auricle and upper neck. It emerges at Erbs point with other cutaneous cervical branches.

Contents of the Quadrangular Space Diagram

Quadrangular space contents include axillary nerve and posterior circumflex humeral artery/vein, bounded by teres minor superiorly, teres major inferiorly, long head triceps medially, humerus laterally. Compression causes deltoid/teres minor weakness.

ECG Tracing with Heart ContractionN

ECG tracing with heart contraction synchronizes electrical and mechanical events, where the P wave reflects atrial depolarization initiating contraction to fill ventricles, followed by the flat PR interval during AV…

Large Medium Vein Venule

Veins progress from venules collecting capillary blood, merging into small then medium veins with increasing smooth muscle and valves preventing backflow in limbs against gravity, finally large veins like venae…

Muscles of the Anterolateral Abdominal Wall Diagram

Anterolateral abdominal wall muscles include external oblique (down/out fibers), internal oblique (up/out), transversus abdominis (horizontal), and rectus abdominis (vertical in sheath). They compress trunk, flex, rotate, and support viscera.

Deep Chest Muscles Serratus Anterior and Pectoralis Minor Diagram

Deep anterior chest muscles include serratus anterior (from ribs 1-8/9 to scapula medial border, protracts/rotates scapula) and pectoralis minor (ribs 3-5 to coracoid, depresses scapula, accessory respiration). Both stabilize shoulder…

Anatomical Divisions of the Small Intestines Duodenum Jejunum and Ileum Diagram

Small intestine divisions: duodenum (C-shaped, retroperitoneal, receives bile/pancreatic juice), jejunum (proximal 2/5, longer vasa recta, taller plicae), ileum (distal 3/5, more arcades, Peyers patches). They absorb nutrients progressively.

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…
