Detailed explanation-1: -If this vertical plane runs directly down the middle of the body, it is called the midsagittal or median plane. If it divides the body into unequal right and left sides, it is called a parasagittal plane or less commonly a longitudinal section.
Detailed explanation-2: -Definition. A cut (in actual or by imaging techniques) from the top to the bottom of the body, or of any anatomic structure, dividing it into left and right portions. Supplement. Word origin: sagittal » from the Latin word sagittalis, meaning arrow.
Detailed explanation-3: -The sagittal plane divides the right and left side of the brain into parts. The midsagittal plane would divide the right and left sides of the brain into two equal parts, like cutting down the middle of a baked potato before you put on the toppings.
