The lateromedial view of a mammogram is performed with a 90° angulated x-ray beam directed from the lateral to the medial breast. For a lateromedial oblique view, the x-ray beam is directed from the lower-outer to the upper-inner part of the breast (the exact reverse of the mediolateral oblique view). These views improve the visualization of medial breast tissue (also called true reverse oblique).

A tomographic imaging direction, frontwards relative to a short axis of the human body from the back to the front.

A collection of slices with the same orientation. Multi-stack acquisitions are possible when the stack parameter is greater than one, for example in lumbar spine CT exams with individual angulation (oblique) for every disc.
