The spine is a three-dimensional structure and scoliosis is a 3-D problem. Doctors refer to sections of the body as planes, or flat surfaces. Each plane has a name and these terms are used when discussing spinal alignment and balance. The terms are: sagittal plane (side view); coronal plane (front view); and, transverse or axial plane (top, bottom views). Scoliosis surgery addresses all three planes.
