Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

Surface anatomy: two questions

Hi, I was hoping you could help me with two questions:
1) Which rib or costal cartilage constitutes the costal margin in the mid-clavicular line?
2) What are the anterior, lateral and superior RIB borders of the diaphragm?

I think the answer to (1) is the ninth costal cartilage and that (2) is anterior: rib 8; lateral: rib 10 and posterior rib 12 but I wanted to check?
Thanks

this is completely irrelevant information. dont waste time. you will never use this.

you need to learn relevant information.

2nd intercostal space = treatment of tension pneumothorax
5th intercostal space / midclavicular line = apex of heart
learn positioning of ECG leads. on body

etc.
