Combine the different anatomical terms to describe the “bullet wounds" in the images. Assume that you are acting as the coroner, and you have a victim with two gunshot wounds. For each “bullet wound,” describe the location of the wound using at least three directional terms and as many regional/quadrant terms as possible, following the example attached. As a coroner, you must be as specific as possible, and don’t forget that your victim is in the anatomical position.

If you were working with a coroner at the county morgue, you might hear the
coroner state the following:
The bullet entered the right-posterior scapular region, 3 centimeters lateral to the
vertebral region, 4 centimeters inferior to the cervical region, and penetrated deep
to the muscle and bone, but superficial to the parietal pleura.
