Spanish term

cortical frontal parasagital derecho

Spanish to English Medical Medical (general)
This is on an MRI report, the patient had a traumatic brain injury. I'm assuming this is meant to be an adjective for "secuela". Having trouble with the order more than anything, it all sounds wrong to me. Also, can anyone tell me if there's a rule for ordering these adjectives used to describe brain regions?

Context:

Secuela de lesiones hemorrágicas cortical frontal parasagital derecho, cortical lateral frontal derecho, subcortical/centro semioval derecho, margen derecho del cuerpo del cuerpo calloso, margen derecho del rodete del cuerpo calloso, periventricular derecho, región cápsula talámica derecha, temporal profundo derecho, en relación a lesión axonal difusa, dado el antecedente traumático.

right parasagittal frontal cortex Magnetic resonance scan of the brain showed multiple areas of remote and recent infarction involving right frontal cortical and subcortical regions, pons and cerebellum, and right parasagittal frontal cortex

Después de todo, la traducción literal que plantea Helena en Refs parece perfectamente justificada (¿como respuesta, Helena?).

Parasagital (parasaggital) se refiere a "paramediano", esto es, a su localización específica (en la corteza frontal a nivel "paramediano", esto es, próximo a la confluencia con la corteza contralateral).

"right parasagittal frontal cortex"?

In anatomy, the sagittal plane, or longitudinal plane, is an anatomical plane which divides the body into right and left parts. The plane may be in the center of the body and split it into two halves (mid-sagittal) or away from the midline and split it into unequal parts (para-sagittal).The anatomical term sagittal was coined by Gerard of Cremona.

The term parasagittal is used to describe any plane parallel or adjacent to a given sagittal plane. Specific named parasagittal planes include

The frontal lobe is covered by the frontal cortex. The frontal cortex includes the premotor cortex, and the primary motor cortex – cortical parts of the motor cortex. The front part of the frontal lobe is covered by the prefrontal cortex.

Minute hyperintense areas in the white matter near the posterior horn of the right lateral ventricle and in the right parasagittal frontal cortex was shown in MRI diffusion weighted image.

Magnetic resonance scan of the brain showed multiple areas of remote and recent infarction involving right frontal cortical and subcortical regions, pons and cerebellum, and right parasagittal frontal cortex.

Brain MRI was remarkable for new abnormal T2/FLAIR hyperintense and restricted diffusion involving the left thalamus, right parasagittal frontal cortex, and bilateral genu of the corpus callosum (Figure 3)

I think 'right parasagittal' means to the right of the parasagittal line and 'frontal cortex' is the part of the brain, though I'm definitely no expert!

I don't answer medical questions unless I'm quite sure of the answer! Thank you, Chema :-)
agree Anne Schulz : I agree, "cortex" or "cortical" should be included, since the list has other (i.e., subortical and deep nuclear) lesions as well
