Slice whichever way you like

Apart from X-ray images, most modern-day medical images are in 3D. With a set of 3D data, we may make cross-sectional slices whichever way we like. Transverse, sagittal and coronal are common cuts. We can even make oblique cuts. Just an example — don’t bother to try imagining and getting the example right. Most of us do not think in 3D. Some people are able to; that gift is a truly great asset.
