The dorsal region, thus, is the one that is left behind if an imaginary division of the body is done in half in a perpendicular direction, advancing perpendicular to the floor (in the case of the bipeds), or that is further from the exterior if the body is divided in half horizontally with an imaginary cut parallel to the ground (in the case of quadrupeds).
