The acromiotrapezius, spinotrapezius, latissimus dorsi, and spinodeltoid are four major superficial muscles of the shoulder and dorsal thoracic areas.
The scientific name for the upper back region is the "dorsal region" or "thoracic region." This area includes the thoracic vertebrae and the muscles that run along the upper back.
dorsal
There are 12 pairs of Dorsal nerves also know as thoracic nerves. They emerge from the thoracic vertebrae hence the name.
Yes, the skin on the dorsal surface of your body is located on your superficial surface. The dorsal surface refers to the back side of the body, which is considered superficial as it is closer to the surface of the skin compared to structures deeper within the body.
The ridge on the dorsal surface of the shoulder blade is called the spine.
Dorsal Cavity
No, the dorsal cavity does not contain the thoracic, abdominal, or pelvic cavities. The dorsal cavity is divided into the cranial cavity, which houses the brain, and the spinal cavity, which contains the spinal cord. The thoracic, abdominal, and pelvic cavities are part of the ventral cavity, which is located at the front of the body.
The trapezius muscles are the muscles on the dorsal surface that are shaped like a trapezpoid.
The back of the human body is often referred to as the dorsal side. It includes the spinal column, shoulder blades, and muscles that run along the spine.
There is a prominent ridge on the dorsal surface of the shoulder blade called the spine.
On the dorsal surface of the shoulder blade there is a prominent ridge called the spine.
Dorsal muscles of the head and trunk include the serratus posterior, the serratus posterior superior, the splenius capitis, the spinalis, the latissimus dorsi, the multifidus, and the sphincter ani internus. They also include the transversus perinea profundus, the urethral sphincter, the external urethral sphincter, and the urethrovaginal muscles.
