This anatomical illustration provides a comparative view of a human #pelvis and #hip #joints, specifically highlighting #Greater #Trochanteric #Bursitis. Key Anatomical Features The image is labeled to identify the structures involved in hip movement and stability: Bony Structures: Shows the pelvis, the lower portion of the #vertebral column, and the upper parts of the #femurs (thigh bones). Musculature: The Tensor fasciae latae muscle is shown on the upper lateral side of the hip. Connective Tissue: The Iliotibial (IT) band is depicted running down the side of the leg. Greater #Trochanteric #Bursa: A small, fluid-filled sac located between the greater trochanter (the bony prominence of the femur) and the overlying muscles/tendons.

This is a medical illustration showing the anatomy and symptoms of #Conjunctivitis. The image is divided into three main sections: #Eye Anatomy (Left): A cross-section diagram of the eye and eyelid shows the location of key structures. Labels point to the #Conjunctiva, #Cornea, #Sclera, and #Eyelid. Normal vs. Conjunctivitis (Top Right): This section compares a "Normal" eye on the left half to an eye with "Typical features of conjunctivitis" on the right half. The affected eye is red and swollen. Several arrows point to specific symptoms: "#Redness and #swelling (#bacterial and #viral)" points to the inflamed white part of the eye and the eyelid. "#Crusting (bacterial)" points to yellowish crusts along the eyelashes. "Opaque #discharge (bacterial)" and "Clear #tearing (viral)" point to the discharge collected at the inner corner of the eye. Inner Eyelid Examination (Bottom Right): This close-up shows a finger pulling down the lower eyelid to reveal its inner surface. An arrow points to small bumps, labeled as "#Follicles (bumps) on inner part of eyelid (viral)", indicating a symptom specific to viral conjunctivitis.

This image features a detailed anatomical illustration of the human eye, with a specific focus on a magnified cross-section of the ciliary body and surrounding structures. The main diagram displays a sagittal view of the entire eye, while the circular inset zooms in on the junction between the anterior and posterior segments. Key structures labeled in the magnified view include: Choroid: The vascular layer of the eye situated between the retina and the sclera. Pars plana: The relatively flat, posterior portion of the ciliary body. Pars plicata: The folded, anterior portion of the ciliary body, which contains the ciliary processes responsible for producing aqueous humor. Iris: The pigmented structure that controls the diameter of the pupil and the amount of light reaching the retina.

The FIGO staging on endometrial cancer FIGO Staging The most widely used staging system is that from the International Federation of Obstetrics and Gynaecology (FIGO): Stage I – Carcinoma confined to within uterine body. Stage II – Carcinoma may extend to cervix but is not beyond the uterus. Stage III – Carcinoma extends beyond uterus but is confined to the pelvis. Stage IV – Carcinoma involves bladder or bowel, or has metastasised to distant sites. #EndometrialCancer #UterineCancer #CancerStaging #FIGOStaging #GynecologicCancer #WomensHealth #CancerAwareness #MedicalDiagram #Oncology #HealthEducation #Endometrium #Myometrium #Metastasis

A detailed diagram illustrating the feedback loop for human blood sugar regulation. The central components are the liver (red, left), pancreas (orange, right), and tissue cells (pink, center-bottom). The top shows red blood cells labeled "High Blood Sugar" and "Raises Blood Sugar." A yellow arrow indicates "promotes insulin release" from the pancreas. Insulin (yellow box) stimulates glycogen formation in the liver and glucose uptake by tissue cells (yellow arrows), leading to "Lowers Blood Sugar." Low blood sugar (red blood cells at the bottom) promotes "glucagon release" (blue arrow). Glucagon (blue box) stimulates glycogen breakdown in the liver (blue arrow), leading to "Raises Blood Sugar," completing the cycle. Blue arrows show glucose moving from liver to blood, and yellow arrows show glucose moving from blood to liver and tissues. Text labels include "Liver," "Pancreas," "Tissue Cells (muscle, kidney, fat)," "Insulin," "Glucagon," "Glycogen," and "Glucose."

The "rule of nines" is a method used to estimate the total body surface area (TBSA) affected by burns in adults. It divides the body into anatomical regions, each representing approximately 9% or a multiple of 9% of the total body surface area. This method provides a rough estimate of the extent of burns and helps guide initial management and fluid resuscitation. Here's a breakdown of the rule of nines: Head and Neck: Approximately 9% of TBSA for the front and back of the head and neck combined. Anterior Trunk: Approximately 18% of TBSA for the front of the torso (including the chest and abdomen). Posterior Trunk: Approximately 18% of TBSA for the back of the torso. Each Arm: Approximately 9% of TBSA for each arm (front and back combined). Each Leg: Approximately 18% of TBSA for each leg (front and back combined). Genitalia: Approximately 1% of TBSA for the genital area #Burn #TBSA #RuleOfNines #Rule #Nines #diagnosis #SurfaceArea
