3D Anatomy of Lower Limb Muscles

The muscular system of the lower limb includes muscles responsible for movement, support, and stability. Major muscle groups include the gluteal muscles, quadriceps, hamstrings, and calf muscles. The hip muscles, such as the gluteus maximus, medius, and minimus, facilitate movements of the hip joint. The quadriceps group, including the rectus femoris and vastus muscles, extends the knee. The hamstrings, including the biceps femoris, semitendinosus, and semimembranosus, flex the knee. The calf muscles, primarily the gastrocnemius and soleus, facilitate plantarflexion of the foot. Detailed 3D models illustrate the origin, insertion, innervation, and function of these muscles.
