How would you locate the transpyloric plane?

The video describes the location of the transpyloric plane and its relation to other horizontal planes in the abdomen. It also touches on some other surface anatomical landmarks in the anterior abdominal wall such as the umbilicus and McBurney's point. The video explains the importance of using bony structures that can be felt rather than visual landmarks when mapping surface anatomy. The structures that lie in the transpyloric plane are listed as well as the vertebral level. A list of the nine regions of the anterior abdominal wall is also provided. This video is part of a playlist of short videos which are intended to combine multiple choice questions answering experience with an improved understanding of anatomy.

However, students with little or no clinical training can answer the questions provided that they follow a clinically-oriented approach in their study of anatomy. It is widely accepted that multiple-choice examinations are the most objective means available today for testing the theoretical knowledge of large populations of students. They test not only an individual's knowledge but also the more subtle qualities, such as discrimination, judgment, and reasoning. If multiple-choice tests are to be most effectively used as educational tools, they should be given to students during the course of studies and not just during the examination at the end of the course. Considering the descriptive nature of anatomy, and the importance of illustrations in grasping and remembering anatomical relationships, diagrams are added. However, they should not be expected to accompany questions in an actual examination setting. In this case, the student should visualize these relations in his/her mind's eye before attempting to answer the question.
