assessing posture in the lateral view includes which landmark(s)?
c7 spinous process
external occipital protuberance
external auditory meatus

When assessing posture in the lateral view, several anatomical landmarks are considered. The C7 Spinous Process is a prominent landmark at the base of the neck. The External Occipital Protuberance is a bony prominence on the back of the skull. The External Auditory meatus is the ear canal opening. The Coracoid is a part of the scapula. The Acromion is the end - point of the scapula. The PSIS (Posterior Superior Iliac Spine) is a bony landmark on the pelvis. All these landmarks help in evaluating the alignment and posture of the body in the lateral view.
