What is a midsagittal section?

A midsagittal section is a plane that divides the body into left and right halves. It passes through the midline of the body, from the top of the head to the bottom of the spine. A midsagittal section can be used to view the internal organs and structures of the body, such as the heart, lungs, and digestive system. It is often used in medical imaging, such as MRI and CT scans, to diagnose and treat medical conditions.
