Study Notes
Anatomical Planes
- A sagittal plane is a vertical plane that divides the body into right and left parts.
- If the sagittal plane divides the body into two equal halves, it is called the median plane.
- A coronal plane is a vertical plane that divides the body into front and back parts.
- A transverse plane is a horizontal plane that divides the body into upper and lower parts.
