Abdominal cavity

The abdominal cavity is a large body cavity in humans and many other animals that contain organs.

See Pelvic inlet and Abdominal cavity

Arcuate line of ilium

The arcuate line of the ilium is a smooth rounded border on the internal surface of the ilium.

See Pelvic inlet and Arcuate line of ilium

Coccyx

The coccyx (coccyges or coccyxes), commonly referred to as the tailbone, is the final segment of the vertebral column in all apes, and analogous structures in certain other mammals such as horses.

See Pelvic inlet and Coccyx

CT scan

A computed tomography scan (CT scan; formerly called computed axial tomography scan or CAT scan) is a medical imaging technique used to obtain detailed internal images of the body.

See Pelvic inlet and CT scan

Iliopectineal line

The iliopectineal line is the border of the iliopubic eminence.

See Pelvic inlet and Iliopectineal line

Pectineal line (pubis)

The pectineal line of the pubis (also pecten pubis) is a ridge on the superior ramus of the pubic bone.

See Pelvic inlet and Pectineal line (pubis)

Pelvic brim

The pelvic brim is the edge of the pelvic inlet. Pelvic inlet and pelvic brim are pelvis.

See Pelvic inlet and Pelvic brim

Pelvic cavity

The pelvic cavity is a body cavity that is bounded by the bones of the pelvis. Pelvic inlet and pelvic cavity are pelvis.

See Pelvic inlet and Pelvic cavity

Pelvic outlet

The lower circumference of the lesser pelvis is very irregular; the space enclosed by it is named the inferior aperture or pelvic outlet. Pelvic inlet and pelvic outlet are pelvis.

See Pelvic inlet and Pelvic outlet

Pelvimetry

Pelvimetry is the measurement of the female pelvis. Pelvic inlet and Pelvimetry are pelvis.

See Pelvic inlet and Pelvimetry

Pelvis

The pelvis (pelves or pelvises) is the lower part of the trunk, between the abdomen and the thighs (sometimes also called pelvic region), together with its embedded skeleton (sometimes also called bony pelvis or pelvic skeleton).

See Pelvic inlet and Pelvis

Pubic crest

Medial to the pubic tubercle is the pubic crest, which extends from this process to the medial end of the pubic bone.

See Pelvic inlet and Pubic crest

Pubic symphysis

The pubic symphysis (symphyses) is a secondary cartilaginous joint between the left and right superior rami of the pubis of the hip bones. Pelvic inlet and pubic symphysis are pelvis.

See Pelvic inlet and Pubic symphysis

Sacroiliac joint

The sacroiliac joint or SI joint (SIJ) is the joint between the sacrum and the ilium bones of the pelvis, which are connected by strong ligaments. Pelvic inlet and sacroiliac joint are pelvis.

See Pelvic inlet and Sacroiliac joint

Sacrovertebral angle

The sacrum is curved upon itself and placed very obliquely, its base projecting forward and forming the prominent sacrovertebral angle when articulated with the last lumbar vertebra.

See Pelvic inlet and Sacrovertebral angle

Sacrum

The sacrum (sacra or sacrums), in human anatomy, is a large, triangular bone at the base of the spine that forms by the fusing of the sacral vertebrae (S1S5) between ages 18 and 30.

See Pelvic inlet and Sacrum

Sagittal plane

The sagittal plane (also known as the longitudinal plane) is an anatomical plane that divides the body into right and left sections.

See Pelvic inlet and Sagittal plane
