Description
Axial anatomical orientation plane. Computer artwork of a human body, showing one of the three different orientation planes used as a reference in anatomy. This is the axial (or transverse) plane (green), which divides the body into head and tail (cranial and caudal) portions. An arrow shows the standard direction of view of this plane used in artworks, scans and other imaging methods. The other two planes are the sagittal plane and the coronal plane. For all three planes, see C020/0061.
