Type 13 names in the thoracic cage set, from Sternum to Twelfth rib. Keep the rib number while reading the repeated name. Use the Latin reading line as an extra point of reference while copying the English display name. A reading line is supporting information, and is not automatically an accepted answer. Only the display name and the alternatives actually registered for that item are accepted. These illustrations and explanations are a learning draft awaiting specialist medical review; they must not be used for diagnosis or as an authoritative anatomical reference.
