Description
Left-to-Right Division
The sagittal plane is a vertical plane that runs from the front to the back of the brain.
Midline Cut
When this plane passes exactly through the center of the brain, it's called the mid-sagittal plane or median sagittal plane, creating two symmetrical halves.
Structures Revealed
A mid-sagittal view shows major components like the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brainstem, along with deeper structures such as the corpus callosum (which connects the hemispheres) and parts of the diencephalon and posterior fossa
