'contralateral' means 'the other side'.
So, if I'm talking about your right shoulder, the left is the contralateral. If I'm talking about your left shoulder, the right is the contralateral.
The patellar reflex is ipsilateral. If the stimulus is applied to left knee cap, the left knee responds. On the other hand, if the right knee were to respond to a left knee stimulus, the response would be considered contralateral.
A contralateral response is when a stimulus is sensed on one side of the spinal column, but the response and effectors of that stimulus occur on the opposite side of the spinal column. This is opposed to an ipsilateral response in which the stimulus and response are both on the same side of the spinal column
Forehead to left breast. Left breast to right shoulder. Right shoulder to left shoulder. Left shoulder to right breast. Right breast to forehead. This is for a blessing, for a banishing to it in reverse.
The left side of the motor area of the brain, specifically the left primary motor cortex, is responsible for controlling movements of the right arm. This is because of the contralateral organization of the motor pathways in the brain, where each hemisphere controls movement on the opposite side of the body.
The left clavicle is ipsilateral to the left scapula, and contralateral to the right.
The right kneecap contralateral and inferior to the left shoulder.
No, it is contralateral.
No the gallbladder is superior to the appendix. Contralateral only applies if they were to be opposite ends of each other i.e. the right arm is contralateral to the left leg.
contralateral
The patellar reflex is ipsilateral. If the stimulus is applied to left knee cap, the left knee responds. On the other hand, if the right knee were to respond to a left knee stimulus, the response would be considered contralateral.
Contralateral means the opposite side to the side being tested. For instance, in audiology, the right ear has a probe inserted but we are actually testing the response that the left is is giving. The opposite of contralateral is ipsilateral meaning the ear with the probe is the ear being tested
the Left Shoulder
no, the spleen and gallbladder are contralateral, meaning on opposite sides.
Contralateral neglect is a disturbance of the patient's ability to respond to stimuli on the side of the body opposite (contralateral) to the side of brain lesion, in the absence of simple sensory or motor deficits. Patients with contralateral neglect often behave as though the left side of their world does not exist and they often fail to appreciate that they have a problem. The disturbance is often associated with large lesions of the right posterior parietal lobe. In one example, Mrs. T acquired contralateral neglect following a massive stroke in the posterior portion of her right hemisphere.
He used the Grenadier shoulder for his left shoulder.
A contralateral response is when a stimulus is sensed on one side of the spinal column, but the response and effectors of that stimulus occur on the opposite side of the spinal column. This is opposed to an ipsilateral response in which the stimulus and response are both on the same side of the spinal column
In America I have always been tought to "pass like cars" or pass left shoulder to left shoulder.
