How may muscles is the hemidiaphragm?

[edit]

Is the hemidiaphragm 1 oe 3 muscles (lumbar/costal/sternal part) and does it really appear twice? or just once? Claes Lindhardt (talk) 21:47, 31 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Table with latin name meaning

[edit]

Would it make sense to make an overview of what the different lating suffixes and prefixes mean? to also make it easier to new commers?

or is that more then the page needs? I feel it might be usefull to have around untill we settle on some muscle naming convenctions and implement them? Also to make clear that multple of these terms kind of mean the same thing, as well as how inconsitent it is how much information a muslce name gives about the actual muscle.

Latin Term Meaning
Brevis short, little
Flexor a muscle whose contraction bends a limb or other part of the body.
Abbductor a muscle whose contraction moves a limb or part away from the midline of the body, or from another part.

The Human anatomy project seems to work around the following terms:
But I cannot find anywhere which is supposed to be used as pre-fix or suffix when? is there a guide to this somewhere that I am overlooking that we could use to make the naming of the muscle uniform? Also it seems to suggest minor, Major, Superior, Anterior, Inferior will always be locational information and thus never belong in the name? but rahter only in the location column? Does it make sense to update the convention to match this? Claes Lindhardt (talk) 20:38, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Visual representation to show orientation of muscles

[edit]

Is there a way in which we could make something like: https://www.caskanatomy.info/browser/html5/fembrowser.html?fbclid=IwAR0sxmZMJ9ez-6ZxAk02G5KKziidEAYAv1QKhe6w6QvoElcOunmsH1yVsUQ but which could be opend in wikipedia, and where when you hover over a certain part a small square appears with the name of the muscle(and then maybe even a link that when you click it, it takes you to that given muscle). Woulden't that be a nice way to provide an easily navigable overview of the muscles in standard human body? Claes Lindhardt (talk) 17:09, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Spelling of abductor

[edit]

Surely it's abductor and not abdactor?
