- Transverse sinusSinus transversusA large paired dural venous sinus that curves round the back of the skull from the confluence of sinuses towards the jugular foramen.
- Transverse temporal gyriGyri temporales transversiShort gyri on the upper surface of the temporal lobe, hidden inside the lateral sulcus, that form the primary auditory cortex.
- Transverse tibiofibular ligamentLigamentum tibiofibulare transversumA thick band crossing the back of the ankle between the fibular malleolus and the tibia, deepening the socket for the talus.
- Transversus abdominis muscleMusculus transversus abdominisTransversus abdominis is the deepest of the flat abdominal muscles, its fibres wrapping horizontally round the abdomen like a corset.
- Transversus thoracis muscleMusculus transversus thoracisTransversus thoracis is a thin sheet lining the inside of the front chest wall, fanning from the lower sternum to the costal cartilages.
- Trapeziotrapezoidal interosseous ligamentLigamentum trapeziotrapezoideum interosseumA deep ligament binding the facing surfaces of the trapezium and trapezoid within the distal row of carpal bones.
- Trapezoid ligamentLigamentum trapezoideumThe flat, four-sided anterolateral part of the coracoclavicular ligament, running from the coracoid process up to the trapezoid line of the clavicle.
- Trapezoideocapitate interosseous ligamentLigamentum trapezoideocapitatum interosseumA deep interosseous ligament that joins the facing surfaces of the trapezoid and capitate in the distal carpal row.
- Triangular part of inferior frontal gyrusPars triangularis gyri frontalis inferiorisThe wedge-shaped middle portion of the inferior frontal gyrus, lying between the two front branches of the lateral sulcus, forming Brodmann area 45.
- Trigeminal nerve (V)Nervus trigeminus (V)The fifth cranial nerve, leaving the side of the pons to give feeling to the face and to work the chewing muscles.
- Triquetrocapitate ligamentLigamentum triquetrocapitatumA palmar ligament crossing the ulnar side of the midcarpal joint from the triquetrum to the capitate.
- Triquetrohamate ligamentLigamentum triquetrohamatumA palmar ligament on the ulnar side of the wrist that binds the triquetrum to the hamate across the midcarpal joint.
- Triradiate cartilageCartilago triradiataThe Y-shaped growth cartilage in a child's hip socket, where the ilium, ischium and pubis meet before they fuse.
- Trochlea of superior oblique muscleTrochlea musculi obliqui superiorisA small cartilage pulley in the upper inner corner of the orbit, through which the tendon of superior oblique turns towards the eye.
- Trochlear nerve (IV)Nervus trochlearis (IV)The fourth cranial nerve, a slender motor nerve leaving the back of the midbrain to supply the eye's superior oblique muscle.
- Tuber of vermisTuber vermisA small lobule at the back of the inferior vermis, below the folium, continuous on each side with the inferior semilunar lobules.
- Tympanic membraneMembrana tympanicaThe eardrum: a thin, slightly conical membrane at the inner end of the ear canal, separating the outer ear canal from the middle ear cavity.
- UlnaThe ulna is the medial bone of the forearm, on the little-finger side, large at the elbow and small at the wrist.
- Ulnar arteryArteria ulnarisThe larger terminal branch of the brachial artery, running down the little-finger side of the forearm and ending mainly in the superficial palmar arch.
- Ulnar collateral ligamentLigamentum collaterale ulnare cubitiA strong fan-shaped band on the inner side of the elbow, tying the humerus at its medial epicondyle to the ulna.
- Ulnar collateral ligament of wrist jointLigamentum collaterale ulnare carpiA rounded cord on the little-finger side of the wrist, joining the ulnar styloid process to the triquetrum and pisiform.
- Ulnar head of extensor carpi ulnarisCaput ulnare extensoris ulnaris carpiThis ulnar head of the extensor carpi ulnaris muscle is the lower of the muscle's two origins, arising from the back border of the ulna.
- Ulnar head of flexor carpi ulnarisCaput ulnare flexoris ulnaris carpiThis ulnar head is the larger of the two origins of flexor carpi ulnaris, arising from the olecranon and back border of the ulna.
- Ulnar nerveNervus ulnarisA main nerve of the upper limb from the medial cord, running behind the medial epicondyle to supply most small muscles of the hand.
