Anatomy of the Human Breast on a Click Map

Can you name the different anatomical parts of the human breast when highlighted?
Note that the lactiferous sinus isn't included in this (as research suggests this doesn't exist).
The lobe, lobule and alveoli have all been combined into one feature for simplicity.

Pretty sure there isn't a layer of skin within the chest wall

do you mean the skin at the back of the diagram? because i just enclosed the entire diagram with skin to make it more simple and better visually, and I didn't want to include all the organs etc behind the chest wall since it's just about the breast. or do you mean the fascia?

The fascia isn't pictured within the chest wall. So no, I didn't mean the fascia.

But okay, I haven't actually seen what it would look like to have the skin just end at the top and bottom without wrapping around. But I imagine it wouldn't look so bad seeing as it would just stop like all the other parts which are positioned vertically.

a lot of diagrams draw this similarly and take these types of creative liberties so i won't be changing this but i can add a caveat clarifying this if wanted

Love this! 100%!

Also just a reminder to check for lumps which could indicate breast cancer :-)
