![PART I. REGIONAL ANATOMY2 SUPERIOR EXTREMITY I. Structures of the Back; with Reference Primarily to Structures in Relation to the Superior Extremity 1. SURFACE ANATOMY. (Pis. 1, 4.) Structures which may be identified by inspection and palpation. For subdivisions of the superior extremity see III: 1. Spinous processes—6 : 37. Vertebra prominens—6 : 38. Medial angle of the scapula—13 : 52. Inferior angle of the scapula—13 : 50. Spine of the scapula—13 : 42. Acromion—13 : 45. Iliac crest—15 : 18. For the osteology of the girdle of the superior extremity, see 13: 36-65. 2. REGIONS OF THE BACK. (PI. 12. May be outlined on the skin with pencil or crayon.) Median region of the back—83 : 24. Interscapular region—83 : 25. Scapular region—83 : 26. Suprascapular region—83 : 27. Infrascapular region—83 : 28. Lumbar region—83 : 29. Region of the hip—83 : 30. 2 In conformity with the Basle Anatomical Nomenclature (B N A) all brackets relating to anatomical terms are used in the following sense: Oval brackets ( ) indicate variations (varietates anatomicae). Angular brackets [ ] contain explanatory additions, among which are in- cluded double names and personal names. One affixed asterisk* is used to indicate ontogenetic expressions (e.g., Mem- branae deciduae*—43: 5, Vena umbilicalis*—55: 34, etc.). In Part I two affixed asterisks** are used to indicate structures to which, in consideration of the amount of laboratory time ordinarily available for dissec- tion, secondary emphasis may frequently be assigned. The numerals affixed to each term in the regional anatomy (Part I) cite the page (indicated by numeral at bottom of page) and number of the same term in its systematic position in the outline of systematic anatomy (Part II). In con- nection with these cross-references, it will be observed that the terms in Part I are anglicized in some instances and given in their Latin form in other instances, whereas in Part II the terms appear exclusively in Latin. In the latter case, the term corresponds with the original BNA; in the former case the term has been used in the form which appears to coincide with the usage common to the ma- jority of standard American and English anatomical texts, but it is to be recog- nized that as yet there is no authoritative English list based on the BNA and that for the present decisions upon this point are necessarily largely dependent upon the individual preferences of author and student.
