Detailed explanation-1: -Coronal Plane (Frontal Plane)-A vertical plane running from side to side; divides the body or any of its parts into anterior and posterior portions.
Detailed explanation-2: -The coronal plane is also called the frontal plane. Slices of the brain taken in the coronal plane are similar to the slices from a loaf of bread. Horizontal cuts are made as if you were slicing a hamburger bun or bagel. The sagittal plane divides the right and left side of the brain into parts.
Detailed explanation-3: -A coronal section is one that separates the brain into anterior and posterior halves. The coronal section shown in Figure 19a occurs approximately halfway between these two poles, and helps to show the placement of some of the major internal structures of the brain that will be referred to elsewhere.
