Anatomical landmarks adult - front view
There are three body views (front, back, and side) that can help you to identify a specific body area. The labels show areas of the body which are identified either by anatomical or by common names. For example, the back of the knee is called the �popliteal fossa,� while the �flank� is an area on the side of the body.
