Standard Anatomical Position

Standardized ways to display animals for anatomical study

The standard anatomical position , or standard anatomical model , is the scientifically agreed upon reference position for anatomical location terms. Standard anatomical positions are used to standardise the position of appendages of animals with respect to the main body of the organism. In medical disciplines, all references to a location on or in the body are made based upon the standard anatomical position.

A straight position is assumed when describing a proximo-distal axis (towards or away from a point of attachment). This helps avoid confusion in terminology when referring to the same organism in different postures. For example, if the elbow is flexed, the hand remains distal to the shoulder even if it approaches the shoulder.

Anatomical variants of the posterior horns of the lateral ventricles: an MRI study
2025
Introduction Anatomical variations in the posterior horns of the lateral ventricles are well-documented, with the horn presenting as open, constricted, or completely closed. However, the extent and nature of these variations across different demographics remain under-explored. This study aimed to investigate the anatomical variations of the posterior horn of the lateral ventricles across different age and sex groups and to compare the variations between the right and left sides. Methods We conducted a retrospectiv…
