The human body one structure at a time. Every page has a 3D model you can turn, with its parts numbered on it, where it sits, what it does and what supplies it.
169–192 of 1303
- Cingulate gyrus and sulcus (Middle posterior part)The rear half of the middle stretch of the cingulate gyrus and sulcus, lying over the back of the callosal trunk on the medial hemisphere.
- Cingulate gyrus and sulcus (Posterior dorsal part)The upper rear stretch of the cingulate gyrus and its bordering sulcus, on the medial face of the hemisphere above the corpus callosum.
- Circular sulcus of insulaSulcus circularis insulaeThe groove that rings the insula deep inside the lateral sulcus, marking where the insular cortex meets the overlying opercula.
- Circumflex artery of heartArteria circumflexa cordisThe left coronary artery's branch that curves round the left side of the heart in the groove between atrium and ventricle.
- Circumflex scapular arteryArteria circumflexa scapulaeAn offshoot of the subscapular artery that winds round the lateral border of the scapula to reach the infraspinous fossa.
- Circumflex scapular veinVena circumflexa scapulaeA vein draining the back of the scapula that passes through a gap below teres minor to help form the subscapular vein.
- ClavicleClaviculaThe clavicle is the long, S-shaped collarbone lying across the root of the neck, linking the sternum to the shoulder blade.
- Clavicular head of pectoralis major musclePars clavicularis musculi pectoralis majorisThe clavicular head is the upper, smaller portion of pectoralis major, running from the inner clavicle to the front of the humerus.
- Clavicular part of deltoid musclePars clavicularis musculi deltoideiThe clavicular part is the front portion of deltoid, running from the outer third of the clavicle over the shoulder to the humerus.
- Coccygeus muscleMusculus coccygeusCoccygeus is a flat, triangular muscle at the back of the pelvic floor, stretched from the ischial spine to the edge of the coccyx.
- CoccyxOs coccygisThe small tailbone at the lower end of the vertebral column, made of a few reduced vertebrae below the sacrum.
- Cochlear nerveNervus cochlearisThe hearing part of the vestibulocochlear nerve, carrying sound signals from the inner ear's cochlea to the cochlear nuclei of the brainstem.
- Coeliac nodesNodi coeliaciPreaortic lymph nodes around the coeliac trunk, collecting lymph from the foregut organs of the upper abdomen.
- Coeliac trunkTruncus coeiiacusThe first unpaired branch of the abdominal aorta, a short trunk just below the diaphragm that supplies the organs of the upper abdomen.
- Colic branch of ileocolic arteryRamus colicus arteriae ileocolicaeThe upward branch of the ileocolic artery that climbs on the beginning of the ascending colon to join the right colic artery.
- Collateral interphalangeal ligaments of footLigamenta interphalangea collateralia pedisPaired fibrous bands on the two sides of each joint between the bones of the toes, keeping these hinge joints aligned.
- Collateral interphalangeal ligaments of handLigamenta interphalangea collateralia manusOblique fibrous bands on either side of each finger joint that keep the interphalangeal joints moving as true hinges.
- Collateral metacarpophalangeal ligamentsLigamenta metacarpophalangea collateraliaThe radial and ulnar side ligaments of the knuckle joints, slack when the fingers are straight and tight when they bend.
- Collateral metatarsophalangeal ligamentsLigamenta metatarsophalangea collateraliaStrong rounded cords flanking each joint between a metatarsal head and the base of its proximal phalanx.
- Collateral sulcusSulcus collateralisA long groove on the underside of the temporal and occipital lobes, running from near the occipital pole towards the temporal pole.
- Common facial veinVena facialis communisA short vein in the upper neck, formed by the facial vein and the retromandibular vein, that empties into the internal jugular vein.
- Common fibular nerveNervus fibularis communisThe lateral, smaller of the sciatic nerve's two end branches, curling round the fibular neck to serve the front and side of the leg.
- Common hepatic arteryArteria hepatica communisA short branch of the coeliac trunk that runs to the right along the pancreas and divides into the proper hepatic and gastroduodenal arteries.
- Common iliac arteryArteria iliaca communisOne of the paired terminal branches of the abdominal aorta, running down to the pelvic brim to divide into external and internal iliac arteries.
