  • What is Included in the Musculoskeletal System?
    Muscles, Tendons. Nerves, Ligaments, Bursa
  • MSK is characterized by the joint or structure in need of evaluation such as:
    Shoulder, Elbow, Wrist, Hand, Knee, Ankle and Foot
  • _____________________: portion of the muscle that attaches to the mobile bone for which that muscle action controls
    Insertion
  • _____________________: the part of the muscle attached to the stationary (immobile) bone
    Origin
  • The shoulder would be considered the ____________ and the humerus would be considered the ____________.
    insertion ; origin
  • What are the 4 different types of muscles?
    Bipennate, Unipennate, Multipennate, and Circumpennate
  • The __________ muscle contains muscle fibers with a central origin. (2 connection points)
    Bipennate
  • ___________________ muscle is a division of several feather-like sections in one muscle
    Multipennate
  • ____________________is the convergence of fibers to a central tendon (more in sphincters)
    Circumpennate
  • Skeletal muscle imaged in a longitudinal plane appears _________________with multiple, fine parallel _________.
    homogeneous ; echoes
  • The main portions of the muscle fibers are ____________and radiate toward a central tendon or aponeurosis. (turn on the area to confirm it is muscle and not a mass)
    hypoechoic
  • Attachment of muscle occurs at proximal and distal portions of bundle; it is a collection of tough collagenous fibers called a ____________.
    TENDON
  • Attachments cordlike or flat sheets:
    Aponeuroses
  • This type of attachment (tendons) occurs in __________________ like the rectus abdominis in abdomen.
    flat muscles
  • Tendons occur with or without a surrounding tubular sac called the ______________________.
    synovial sheath
  • ____________________: a loose areolar connective tissue, fills the fascial compartment of tendons lacking a synovial sheath.
    Paratenon
  • Examples of tendons ______________a synovial sheath include the Achilles, patellar, proximal gastrocnemius, and semimembranosus tendons.
    without
  • The joining of the tendon to the bone is called _______________occurs via a narrow band of _______________.
    enthesis ; fibrocartilage
  • Support and strength of joint due in part to ___________which are short bands of tough fibers which connect BONES TO OTHER BONES.
    ligaments
  • Ligaments are ___________and allow joint _____________, however they also limit movement to protect joints from hyperextending or hyperflexing beyond normal range of motion.
    elastic ; flexibility
  • _________________________________ : connects the medial femoral condyle to the medial proximal tibia
    Medial collateral ligament (MCL) or tibial collateral ligament
  • The Medial collateral ligament (MCL) or tibial collateral ligament (TCL) deviates from the usual ligament ______________.
    appearance
  • Most major injuries occur in the _______.
    MCL
  • _____________:Saclike structure surrounding joints and tendons containing viscous fluid
    Bursa
  • Bursa provides area for synovial fluid to aid in reduction of ___________between two musculoskeletal structures, such as tendon and bone or ligament and bone.
    friction
  • Two types of bursae are found in the body:
    communicating and noncommunicating
  • The _______________membrane of communicating bursae interact with the joint space.
    synovial
  • One finding related to a communicating bursa is the __________________, which is located in the medial popliteal fossa(behind the knee).
    Baker's cyst
  • A ___ ___ has a connecting neck located between the semimembranosus and medial gastrocnemius tendons to a bursa contained within the knee joint.
    Baker's cyst
  • ___________________: Conduit for impulses to and from muscles and central nervous system (CNS) and the periphery.
    Nerves
  • ________________: Under control of muscle system with nerves in contact with muscle through motor end plates
    Muscle action
  • Elements of the peripheral nerve include the nerve fibers, arranged into BUNDLES known ass ___________, each encapsulated by dense insulating sheaths of ___________ and connective tissue.
    fasciculi ; myelin (Schwann Cells)
  • Tendons that MOVE when the corresponding joint or muscle will ___________.
    contract
  • Nerve structures remain _____________within the muscle tissue during movement, but within, excursion of the nerve fibers is seen during associated joint movement
    stable
  • MSK Sonography uses ____________frequency ultrasonic imaging
    high (>7 MHz)
  • MSK relies heavily of the ___________evaluation of structures imaged aka "live imaging"
    dynamic
  • Bipennate
  • Unipennate
  • Multipennate
  • Circumpennate
