Review your body planes & directional terms! coronal posterior medial lateral

Median (Midsagittal) Plane Divides body into equal right & left halves.

Frontal (Coronal) Plane Divides body into front & back portions.

Transverse Plane Divides body into upper & lower portions.

Medial Moving towards the midline of the body

Lateral Moving towards the side of the body

Anterior (Ventral) Front part of body anterior

Posterior (Dorsal) Back part of the body posterior

Superior (cephalic) Inferior (caudal) Towards the head Towards the feet

And you thought anatomy would be boring!
