The phrase "a lateral section" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to anatomy, biology, or any field that involves cross-sectional analysis of objects or structures.
Example: "In the study of the brain, a lateral section can provide insights into the different regions and their functions."
Alternatives: "a side view" or "a cross-sectional slice".
However, for enhancing sensitivity, many polymer optical fiber curvature sensors based on intensity variation require a lateral section.
The blockface was trimmed with a razor blade to reveal either a transverse or a lateral section through the trunk of the fish, and polished in a UCT ultramicrotome (Leica Microsystems UK) using a 90° diamond trimming knife (Diatome) so that all faces were smooth and perpendicular.
Reagh and Yassa reported preferential activation in a medial section of EC during mnemonic discrimination of spatial locations and preferential activation in a lateral section of EC during mnemonic discrimination of objects.
As can be seen in Figs. 1(A) – 1(B) and 1(E)– 1(F), an increase of δk from 1 nm to 5 nm reduces the number of fringes visible, and in Figs. 1(B)- 1(C) and 1(F)- 1(G), a 20 μm change in bulk path delay δz between the two interferometer arms causes the fringes to shift to a different lateral section of the field of view.
We analyzed a 2400 μm lateral section of the cortical bone centered about the midshaft of the femur.
To image a 4 mm wide lateral section around the apex of the cornea, an imaging depth of at least 1 mm is required.
long lateral section and a 41-ft.
In their tourist clothing they form the long lateral section of a particularly humanistic fresco.
(a) the shaped side of the shelves; (b) X-ray radiograph of the same part; CT horizontal section without (c) and with (d) a triangular spacer; (e) CT lateral section of the spacer.
In many operations more than one well can be drilled from a single surface site (or "pad"), or more than one lateral section can radiate from a single borehole.
Using measurements collected in the confocal and dissecting microscopes pre- and post-embedding, the zebrafish was manually trimmed and polished to a blockface of approximately 700 µm wide by 300 µm deep (including part of the yolk sac as an orientation marker) to expose a lateral cross section of the AOI at the blockface.
