RADIO GRAPHICS .
– The pectoralis major muscle consists of clavicular (20%) and sternal heads (80%). The clavicular head is a single architectural segment that cannot be further divided. It’s within the clavicular lamina and arises from the medial half of the clavicle.
– The sternal head can be subdivided into 6 to 7 segments along individual fascial planes. The segments are within the abdominal and manubrial laminae and arise from the anterior manubrium, sternum, and second to sixth costal cartilages.
