title: [Definition of a brain reference line in magnetic resonance imaging: the chiasmato-commisural line].
abstract: Proposes and defines a cephalic reference plane that joins the chiamatic notch to the posterior commissure, easily shown on a mid-sagittal cut using magnetic resonance. The horizontal cuts obtained prove to be very close to those oriented according to the lateral fissure, and orthogonal the great axis of the brainstem.
