The Skeletal System

The skeletal System divided into:1. Axial skeleton,

include; Skull and Vertebral Column.

2. Peripheral skeleton, include; Upper and Lower Extremities.

The main function of the skeletal system is:a. Protection.b. Storage of Minerals.c. Support.d. Producing Motion.

Radiographic Anatomy of the Skeleton

UPPER EXTREMITY: 1. Shoulder. 2. Humerus (Arm).3. Elbow.4. Forearm.5. Wrist.6. Hand.

SPINE:1. Cervical Spine.2. Thoracic Spine.3. Lumbar Spine.4. Sacrum Spine.5. Coccyx Spine.

LOWER EXTREMITY: 1. Pelvis and Hip.2. Femur.3. Knee.4. Leg (Tibia and Fibula).5. Ankle.6. Foot.

Skull:1. Skull Base.2. Face.
