The Ultimate SuperficialAnatomy
Schema Generator
Anatomical features that can be observed by sight (without dissection), including the form and proportions of the human body as well as surface landmarks that correspond to deeper subcutaneous structures. Superficial anatomy plays an important role in sports medicine, phlebotomy, and other medical specialties as underlying anatomical structures can be identified through surface palpation. For example, during back surgery, superficial anatomy can be used to palpate and count vertebrae to find the site of incision. Or in phlebotomy, superficial anatomy can be used to locate an underlying vein; for example, the median cubital vein can be located by palpating the borders of the cubital fossa (such as the epicondyles of the humerus) and then looking for the superficial signs of the vein, such as size, prominence, ability to refill after depression, and feel of surrounding tissue support. As another example, in a subluxation (dislocation) of the glenohumeral joint, the bony structure becomes pronounced with the deltoid muscle failing to cover the glenohumeral joint allowing the edges of the scapula to be superficially visible. Here, the superficial anatomy is the visible edges of the scapula, implying the underlying dislocation of the joint (the related anatomical structure).

Google uses SuperficialAnatomy structured data to understand the content and context of your pages. When correctly implemented, this schema can unlock rich results in Google Search — enhancing your listing with additional information that dramatically improves visibility and click-through rates.
Why Add SuperficialAnatomy Structured Data?
Appear in Rich Results
Structured data helps Google show enhanced results for your pages in search — including stars, prices, FAQs, and more.
Boost Click-Through Rate
Rich snippets can increase CTR by up to 30% compared to plain search results — more clicks with the same ranking.
Feed AI Search Engines
AI answer engines like Perplexity and Google SGE use structured data to verify and cite facts from your content.

Properties You Can Include
SuperficialAnatomy schema supports the following schema.org properties. Required fields are the minimum Google needs to consider your markup valid; recommended fields unlock richer search result appearances.
| Property | Description | Expected Type | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| additionalType | An additional type for the item, typically used for adding more specific types from external vocabularies in microdata syntax. This is a relationship between something and a class that the thing is in. Typically the value is a URI-identified RDF class, and in this case corresponds to the use of rdf:type in RDF. Text values can be used sparingly, for cases where useful information can be added without their being an appropriate schema to reference. In the case of text values, the class label should follow the schema.org style guide. | Text, URL | Optional |
| alternateName | An alias for the item. | Text | Optional |
| associatedPathophysiology | If applicable, a description of the pathophysiology associated with the anatomical system, including potential abnormal changes in the mechanical, physical, and biochemical functions of the system. | Text | Optional |
| code | A medical code for the entity, taken from a controlled vocabulary or ontology such as ICD-9, DiseasesDB, MeSH, SNOMED-CT, RxNorm, etc. | MedicalCode | Optional |
| description | A description of the item. | Text, TextObject | Optional |
| disambiguatingDescription | A sub property of description. A short description of the item used to disambiguate from other, similar items. Information from other properties (in particular, name) may be necessary for the description to be useful for disambiguation. | Text | Optional |
| funding | A Grant that directly or indirectly provide funding or sponsorship for this item. See also ownershipFundingInfo. | Grant | Optional |
| guideline | A medical guideline related to this entity. | MedicalGuideline | Optional |
| identifier | The identifier property represents any kind of identifier for any kind of Thing, such as ISBNs, GTIN codes, UUIDs etc. Schema.org provides dedicated properties for representing many of these, either as textual strings or as URL (URI) links. See [background notes](/docs/datamodel.html#identifierBg) for more details. | PropertyValue, Text, URL | Optional |
| image | An image of the item. This can be a URL or a fully described ImageObject. | ImageObject, URL | Recommended |
| legalStatus | The drug or supplement's legal status, including any controlled substance schedules that apply. | DrugLegalStatus, MedicalEnumeration, Text | Optional |
| mainEntityOfPage | Indicates a page (or other CreativeWork) for which this thing is the main entity being described. See [background notes](/docs/datamodel.html#mainEntityBackground) for details. | CreativeWork, URL | Optional |
| medicineSystem | The system of medicine that includes this MedicalEntity, for example 'evidence-based', 'homeopathic', 'chiropractic', etc. | MedicineSystem | Optional |
| name | The name of the item. | Text | Required |
| owner | A person or organization who owns this Thing. | Organization, Person | Optional |
| potentialAction | Indicates a potential Action, which describes an idealized action in which this thing would play an 'object' role. | Action | Optional |
| recognizingAuthority | If applicable, the organization that officially recognizes this entity as part of its endorsed system of medicine. | Organization | Optional |
| relatedAnatomy | Anatomical systems or structures that relate to the superficial anatomy. | AnatomicalStructure, AnatomicalSystem | Optional |
| relatedCondition | A medical condition associated with this anatomy. | MedicalCondition | Optional |
| relatedTherapy | A medical therapy related to this anatomy. | MedicalTherapy | Optional |
