We had a lecture today from a very entertaining professor, Dr. Nachtigall.
"I'm impressed by you guys. Medical students these days have to learn so much. They say medical knowledge doubles every ten years. Since I went to medical school, there's 8-fold more knowledge. In fact, back in my day, we learned the head with one mnemonic: TEON."
We looked at him with earnest ears.
Dr. Nachtigall gestured at his facial accouterments. "TEON: Two eyes, one nose." He then pointed at his legs. "The other one that we learned was LEG which stands for: lower extremity, ground."
Clearly, the mnemonic to differentiate between arms and legs.
