Anatomical planes are used in gross anatomy, clinical imaging and histology to define the direction of viewing in the standard anatomical position.

coronal plane - (frontal plane) is any vertical plane that divides the body into ventral and dorsal sections.
sagittal plane - vertical plane which passes from anterior to posterior, dividing the body into right and left halves. Midsagittal (median) plane is located in the midline, all other planes are parasagittal planes.
transverse plane - (cross-section, horizontal plane, axial plane, or transaxial plane) is plane that divides the body into superior and inferior parts and is perpendicular to the coronal and sagittal planes.
