  2. Coronal plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronal_plane

    The coronal plane (also known as the frontal plane) is an anatomical plane that divides the body into dorsal and ventral sections. ... Sectional planes of the brain.

  3. Anatomical plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatomical_plane

    The transverse planes identified in Terminologia Anatomica are the transpyloric plane, the subcostal plane, the transumbilical (or umbilical) plane, the supracristal plane, the intertubercular plane, and the interspinous plane. A coronal plane (also known as frontal plane) is perpendicular to the ground; it separates the anterior from the ...

    It contains (and thus is defined by) the lateral and the medial axes of the brain. Coronal, a vertical plane that passes through the coronal suture of the skull (or through both ears), or any plane parallel to this. There is no term "paracoronal" comparable to the commonly used "parasagittal".

  5. Neuroanatomy - Wikipedia

    A coronal plane across the human head and brain is modernly conceived to be parallel to the face (the plane in which a king's crown sits on his head is not exactly parallel to the face, and exportation of the concept to less frontally endowed animals than us is obviously even more conflictive, but there is an implicit reference to the coronal ...

  8. Corona radiata - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corona_radiata

    Evidence from subcortical small infarcts suggests that motor fibers are somatotopically arranged in the human corona radiata. Following subtotal brain damage, localization of the corticofugal projection in the corona radiata and internal capsule can assist in evaluating a patient's residual motor capacity and predicting their potential for functional restitution.
