Is the transverse plane the z axis on a human?

I am also under the impression that the sagittal plane is the x axis and the coronal plane is the y axis.



I'm trying to verify this info so I can be sure.Is the transverse plane the z axis on a human?You haven't defined how you defined X,Y and Z. Assuming you defined the Z axis to run from head to toe. Then a transverse plane is indeed a plane normal to this axis.



Of more graphically it's the same plane that a guillotine falls in.



You can also see the 3 medical planes at

Is the transverse plane the z axis on a human?if its a plane, yu hav the longitude axis, vertikal axis, %26amp; side axis

(krats sumtimes kall it the "lateral" axis).

In math problems, yuzeyully yuze x, y, z

oenlee superkratz yuze werds like "transvers"
