Lower - xiphisternum

17
Q

What is the junction between the manubrium and body of the sternum called? Why is it an important landmark?

A

Sternal Angle - passes through vertebra T4; ths plane separates the superior mediastinum from other parts of the mediastinum.

18
Q

Which ribs are not attached to the sternum?

A

19
Q

What are the veins that pump blood into the right atrium?

A
