Structure of waist region of trunk (body structure) Is a Structure of subregion of trunk (body structure) false Inferred relationship Some
Structure of waist region of trunk (body structure) Is a This cross-sectional segment is bounded superiorly by a virtual horizontal plane at the level of the junction between T8 and T9 (and thus also includes part of the thoracic volume below this level); and inferiorly by a virtual horizontal plane at the level of the plane traversing the superior boundary of the iliac crest. 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. true Inferred relationship Some
Structure of waist region of trunk (body structure) Is a This segment relates to the volume of the trunk that is bounded superiorly by and includes: the thoracic diaphragm and inferiorly by the superior pelvic aperture. It incorporates the abdominal proper cavity (including the volume of the false pelvis), contents and wall including the lumbar vertebral column and all the overlying muscles, skin and subcutaneous tissue. It consequently includes the intra-abdomen proper structure, the anterior abdominal wall and the posterior lumbar region. Note, the entire bony pelvis although forming part of the boundary is excluded from the abdomen proper segment of trunk (but is included as part of the pelvic segment of trunk). true Inferred relationship Some
