PLANES & REGIONS
,ANATOMICAL PLANES
1. Median plane – Mid sagittal plane
2. Para sagittal plane
3. Frontal or coronal plane
4. Transverse or horizontal plane
5. Oblique plane
, 1) MEDIAN PLANE – MID SAGITTAL
PLANE
A plane that divides the body down
the middle into equal left and right
sides is the Median Sagittal Plane.
This vertical (top to bottom) plane
divides the body into left and right
sides
, 2) PARA SAGITTAL PLANE
It is a plane running/cutting the
body parallel to the median plane.
Examples of para-sagittal : planes
are mid-clavicular planes.
