Anatomically speaking, lets talk about the abdominal pelvic cavity. This area is located from as high as your Xiphoid to as low as your pelvis. The regions are broken up by nine regions evenly divided so that it looks like a Tic Tac Toe board.

The upper left region (ULR) being the Right Hypochondriac Region

The upper middle region (UMR) being the Epigastric Region

The upper right region (URR) being the Left Hypochondriac Region.

The left middle region (LMR) being the Right Lumbar Region

The direct middle of your cavity being the Umbilical Region

The middle right region (MRR) being the Left Lumbar Region.

The lower left region is your Right Illiac Region

The lower middle is called your Hypogastric Region

The lower right region being your Left Illiac Region.

These regions may seem confusing but when the patient or subject is lying down or standing up in the anatomical position, the patients left is your right.
