  2. Magnetic resonance imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_imaging

    Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to generate pictures of the anatomy and the physiological processes inside the body. MRI scanners use strong magnetic fields, magnetic field gradients, and radio waves to form images of the organs in the body.

  3. Anatomical plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatomical_plane

    A coronal plane (also known as frontal plane) is perpendicular to the ground; it separates the anterior from the posterior, the front from the back, and the ventral from the dorsal. A sagittal plane (also known as anteroposterior plane ) is perpendicular to the ground, separating left from right.

    The composition of the triangular ligamentous structure on the lateral side of the elbow varies widely between individuals [1] and can be considered either a single ligament, [2] in which case multiple distal attachments are generally mentioned and the annular ligament is described separately, or as several separate ligaments, [1] in which case parts of those ligaments are often described as ...

    MRI: is, together with the findings of a careful physical examination, a helpful diagnostic tool to assess the condition of the TFCC. Nevertheless, the incidence of false-positive and false-negative MRI results is high. [2] Arthrography: a dye is injected into the wrist joint. If there is a TFCC lesion the dye will leak from one joint ...

  7. Coronal plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronal_plane

    For a human, the mid-coronal plane would transect a standing body into two halves (front and back, or anterior and posterior) in an imaginary line that cuts through both shoulders. The description of the coronal plane applies to most animals as well as humans even though humans walk upright and the various planes are usually shown in the ...

    The coronal plane, also called the frontal plane, which divides the body into front and back. [2] The transverse plane, also called the axial plane or horizontal plane, which is perpendicular to the other two planes. [2] In a human, this plane is parallel to the ground; in a quadruped, this divides the animal into anterior and posterior ...
