\Body region structure\Chest and/or abdomen and/or pelvis structure (body structure)\Chest and/or abdomen structure (body structure)\Thoracic structure\The chest wall is comprised of skin, fat, muscles, thoracic cage, and the costal pleura. Note that the thoracic vertebrae are not part of the thoracic cage.
\Body region structure\Neck, chest, abdomen, and pelvis\Neck and/or chest and/or abdomen structure (body structure)\Neck and/or chest structure (body structure)\Thoracic structure\The chest wall is comprised of skin, fat, muscles, thoracic cage, and the costal pleura. Note that the thoracic vertebrae are not part of the thoracic cage.
\Body region structure\Neck, chest, abdomen, and pelvis\Neck and/or chest and/or abdomen structure (body structure)\Chest and/or abdomen structure (body structure)\Thoracic structure\The chest wall is comprised of skin, fat, muscles, thoracic cage, and the costal pleura.

\Body region structure\Structure of wall of body region (body structure)\The chest wall is comprised of skin, fat, muscles, thoracic cage, and the costal pleura. Note that the thoracic vertebrae are not part of the thoracic cage.
\Body region structure\Body part structure\Upper body structure\Upper body part structure\This segment relates to the volume of the trunk that is bounded by and includes: superiorly the thoracic inlet; inferiorly the thoracic diaphragm; posteriorly the spinal column and back of the thorax; and laterally the chest wall: it contains the thoracic cavity and contents, and includes all the overlying muscles, skin and subcutaneous tissue.\Thoracic structure\The chest wall is comprised of skin, fat, muscles, thoracic cage, and the costal pleura. Note that the thoracic vertebrae are not part of the thoracic cage.
\Body region structure\Body part structure\Trunk structure (body structure)\Structure of subregion of trunk (body structure)\This cross-sectional segment is bounded superiorly by a virtual horizontal plane at the level of the thoracic inlet (upper boundary of first thoracic (T1) vertebra) and inferiorly by a virtual horizontal plane at the level of the lower boundary of the twelfth thoracic (T12) vertebra. The segment therefore includes the entire thoracic cavity but also part of the upper abdominal volume above the virtual plane at the T12 vertebra. The volume includes the entire transverse thickness of the body over the longitudinal extent between the superior (upper) and inferior (lower) boundaries including the skin and subcutaneous tissue. The segment relates to the cross-sectional or projectional volume as perceived by transmissive or emissive imaging.\This segment relates to the volume of the trunk that is bounded by and includes: superiorly the thoracic inlet; inferiorly the thoracic diaphragm; posteriorly the spinal column and back of the thorax; and laterally the chest wall: it contains the thoracic cavity and contents, and includes all the overlying muscles, skin and subcutaneous tissue.\Thoracic structure\The chest wall is comprised of skin, fat, muscles, thoracic cage, and the costal pleura. Note that the thoracic vertebrae are not part of the thoracic cage.
