coronal section

A coronal section is a way of dividing or viewing the body or an organ as if slicing it from front to back, creating a front (anterior) and back (posterior) part. Imagine cutting through a loaf of bread vertically from one side to the other; the resulting slice shows the internal structures in the front and back halves. This type of view helps doctors and scientists see and study the internal arrangement of tissues, muscles, and organs in a way that highlights their locations relative to each other on the front and back sides.
