Change

What is the vertical plane that divides the body into anterior and posterior planes?

Coronal

What is the horizontal plane that divides the body into upper and lower portions?

Transverse

What is the vertical plane that divides the body into right and left halves?

Sagittal

Front of the body:

Back of the body:

Posterior

Away from the surface of the body:

Deep

On the the surface of the body:

Superficial

Far from the point of attachment to the trunk or far from the beginning of a structure:

Distal

Near the point of attachment to the trunk or near the beginning of the structure

Proximal

Below another structure:

Inferior

Above another structure

Superior

Pertaining to the side:

Lateral

Pertaining to the middle:

Medial

Lying on the belly:

Prone

Lying on the back:

Supine

Opposite of ventral

Dorsal

Opposite of superior

Inferior

Opposite of caudal

Cephalad

Opposite of superficial

Deep

Opposite of inferior

Superior

Opposite of lateral

Medial

Opposite of longitudinal

Transverse

Very close to normal parenchyma echogenicity pattern

Isoechoic

Opposite of aneechoic, echo producing structure, reflects sound with brighter intesnsity

Echogenic/Hyperechoic

Not uniform in texture or composition

Hetergeneous

Opposite of echogenic, without internal echoes, structure is fluid filled and transmits sound easily

Anechoic

Sound that travels through an anechoic (fluid filled) substance and is not attenuated (reduce force); Brightness is increased directly beyond the posterior border

Enhancement

Sound beam is attenuated by solid or calcified object. A dense stone would cause this posterior to it's border

Shadowing
