Table 1. Appendicular definitions for each segment outlining proximal and distal boundaries with descriptive landmarks.

Segment	Proximal boundary	Distal boundary	Basic description a
Upper Arm	Glenohumeral Joint	Humeroulnar Joint	Commences between the head of the Humerus and glenoid fossa of the Scapula, separating the upper arm from the trunk; Ending at the elbow axis, noted by the trochlea of the Humerus and olecranon process of the Ulna.
Forearm	Humeroulnar Joint	Ulnocarpal Joint	Commences at the elbow axis (described above); Ending through the wrist axis, noted by the styloid process of the Ulna, and the base of the Pisiform, Lunate and Scaphoid carpal bones.
Hand	Ulnocarpal Joint	Distal Phalanges	Commences through the wrist axis (described above); Ending at the most distal point of the phalanges of the hand.
Thigh	Femoral Head	Tibiofemoral Joint	Commences beneath the head of the Femur along the line of the anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS) and inferior ramus of the pubis; Ending through knee axis, noted as the ‘tibial plateau’ (space between the femoral and tibial condyles).
Shank	Tibiofemoral Joint	Talocrural Joint	Commences through the knee axis (described above); Ending through the ankle junction, noted as the articulation between the Talus, Tibia and Fibula, spanning beneath the medial and lateral malleoli.
Foot	Talocrural Joint	Distal Phalanges	Commences through the ankle junction (described above); Ending at the most distal point of the phalanges of the foot.
