Bone Markings
-Bone markings can be classified as either a depression, a projection that helps forms joints (articulation), or projections that are sites of muscle and ligament attachment.
*see page 115 Table 5.1 in text book for further reference.

Projections that are sites of muscle and ligament attachment
Tuberosity• Large rounded projection,
may be roughened.– Palpable – Ex. Tibial Tuberosity
Crest• Narrow ridge of bone
usually prominent.– Palpable– Ex. Iliac Crest

Trochanter • Very large, blunt irregular
shaped process.– Palpable – Ex. Greater and lesser
Trochanter of the Femur
Line• Narrow ridge of bone, less
prominent than a crest.– Not Palpable– Intertrochanteric Line

Tubercle• Small rounded projection or process
– Palpable– Ex. Greater and lesser tubercle of the
Humerus
Epicondyle
• Raised area on or above a condyle.
• Is a site of ligament attachment– Palpable– Ex. Medial and Lateral
epicondyle of the Humerus

Spine
• Sharp, slender often pointed projection. – Palpable– Ex. Scapular Spine
Ramus• Arm-like bar of bone
– Palpable– Ex. Mandibular Ramus

Projections that help to form Joints (articulation)
Head• Bony expansion carried on a
narrow neck.– Not palpable in the Femur or
Humerus, but is palpable in the Radius
– Ex. Femoral Head
Facet • Smooth nearly flat articular
surface. – Not Palpable – Ex. Rib Facet ( connects to the
vertebrae)

Condyle• Rounded articular
projection– Palpable– Ex. Femoral condyle

Depressions (allow passage of blood vessels and nerves)
Meatus• Canal-like passage way
– Palpable– Ex. External Auditory Meatus
Sinus• Cavity within a bone filled
with air and lined with mucous membrane. – Not Palpable– Ex. Sinus in Cranium

Fossa
• Shallow basin-like depression in bone, often serving as an articular surface. – Not Palpable– Ex. Glenoid Fossa in Scapula
Groove
• Slit-like furrow– Not Palpable– Ex. Bicipital Groove in
Humerus

Fissure
• Narrow slit-like opening • Allows for blood vessel and
nerve passage. – Not Palpable– Ex. Located in Skull
Foramen
• Round or oval opening through bone. – Not Palpable– Ex. Vertebral Foramen.
