That is the sagittal plane
Transverse Plane
A vertical plane at right angles to a sagittal plane, dividing the body into anterior and posterior portions. Also called frontal plane.
A vertical plane at right angles to a sagittal plane, dividing the body into anterior and posterior portions. Also called frontal plane.
Sagittal Plane
From a vertical point of view, the plane that divides the body into left and right portions is the lateral plane or sagittal plane. Dividing the body into planes makes studying anatomy less confusing as body parts can be more easily identified.
Midline SAGITTAL
midsagittal plane
This is called a sagittal plane if divided this way with symmetrical left and right halves. If the section produces asymmetrical halves, this is a parasagittal section.
Coronal, sagittal and transverse planes divide the human body into a three-dimensional grid in the study of human anatomy, to describe the location of body parts in relation to each other.The coronal plane is a vertical plane that divides the body into the ventral (belly, front) and dorsal(back) sections. The sagittal plane is a vertical plane that passes through the ventral and dorsal sections to make a 90° angle with the coronal plane, dividing the body into left and right halves.
That would be called a transverse section.
Coronal plane.
Axis
The Sagittal plane passes through the body front to back, so dividing it into left and right. Movements in this plane are the up and down movements of flexion and extension.
