Anatomical planes:
Sagittal: a plane that divides the body in a left and right side. This plane runs through the
middle of the body in a longitudinal direction.
Coronal: a plane that divides the body in a front and back side. This plane runs through
the middle of the body in a longitudinal direction at a 90-degree angle to the sagittal plane.
Transverse: a horizontal plane that divides the body in an upper and lower portion. The
plane can occur at any height of the body and is perpendicular to the sagittal and coronal
plane.
