Spanish term

SP, eje RL,

Spanish to English Medical Medical (general) Magnetic resonance imaging
I wonder whether anyone can help me, I'm stuck with part of this list of NMR techniques, namely "SP" and "eje RL":

"Estudio practicado en secuencias axiales potenciadas en T1, DP y T2 coronal Flair, sagital T2, estudio T2 coronales potenciados en T1, 3D, SP, eje RL, coronal T2, coronal Flair."

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Spanish term (edited): eje RL
Selected

RL axis

This seems like a direct translation, and RL seems to stand for Right-Left.

There is a considerable amount of instances of this expression in English, when doing a google search. For example:

"The largest inner diameter changes were along the RL axis due to the fill port location ..."

SP is a separate term, needs to be asked as a separate question

Just one more example of many for "RL Axis"

"Figure 4.9 Coronal head scan showing frequency encoding on the SI axis (a) and the RL axis (b) ..."

Even though it should go as a separate question, I've checked around for SP and don't find anything for this acronym in this context. I wonder if it might be a typo for "AP which I do see a lot (anterior-posterior).
Something went wrong...
