Multiple Choice

The epigastric region is the area located:

directly over the right iliac region

inferior to the hypogastric region and lateral to the lumbar regions

between the left and right lumbar regions and inferior to the umbilical region

superior to the umbilical region and between the left and right hypochondriac regions

Verified step by step guidance

Step 1: Begin by understanding the anatomical divisions of the abdomen. The abdomen is divided into nine regions: right hypochondriac, epigastric, left hypochondriac, right lumbar, umbilical, left lumbar, right iliac, hypogastric, and left iliac.

Step 2: Focus on the epigastric region. It is located centrally in the upper abdomen, above the umbilical region, and between the left and right hypochondriac regions.

Step 3: Eliminate incorrect options by comparing their descriptions to the anatomical location of the epigastric region. For example, the epigastric region is not directly over the right iliac region, nor is it inferior to the hypogastric region.

Step 4: Confirm the correct description of the epigastric region. It is superior to the umbilical region and lies between the left and right hypochondriac regions.

Step 5: Use anatomical landmarks to visualize the location of the epigastric region, ensuring clarity in understanding its position relative to other abdominal regions.
