In your sentence you need to include the following information: Left vs right side of the body Regional terms (e.g., brachial, femoral, pectoral, antebrachial, axillary, among many others…see your PPTX for a list) Orientation terms (e.g., anterior, poster, lateral, medial, proximal, distal, superior, inferior). Bone, suture, muscle landmarks that will help you pinpoint the location. DISTANCES (you can use inches or cm) as needed to increase your specificity. REMINDERS: on the arms and legs you are to use proximal and distal. I won’t accept superior and inferior with the arms and legs.
