∙ 13y agoYes for medical purposes. Left Upper Quadrant (LUQ)- Right Upper Quadrant (RUQ)- Left Lower Quadrant (LLQ)- Right Lower Quadrant (RLQ). Under each of the 4 quadrants lies different organs and/or parts that could cause pain.

∙ 10y agoYou have two mid-clavicular lines going vertically down, parallel to each other. Then you have sub-costal line and trans-ileac lines to make nine 'Quadrants'. So you have two sub-costal, two lumber, two ileac quadrants on either side of the mid- clavicular lines, from above downward. One epigastric. one umbilical and one hypogastric quadrant from above downwards, in between the two midclavicular lines, from above downward. Only umbilical quadrant is 'truly' quadrangular.

What two organs are in the dorsal cavity?
The ventral cavity houses almost all of the major body organs. It is subdivided into 2 cavities: a) thoracic cavity - housed by the ribcage. b) abdominopelvic cavity - located on the abdomen and pelvis, as the name implies. The diaphragm is the muscle organ that separates the thoracic and abdominopelvic cavity. The organs on each sub-cavity are as follows: THORACIC: heart - located in the mediastinum 2 lungs ABDOMINAL liver stomach pancreas gall bladder spleen small and large intestines 2 kidneys 2 adrenal glands ureter PELVIC female - uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, urinary bladder male - urinary bladder, prostate gland, seminal vesicles
