General Structure of a Vertebrae
Process
Cervical (C1-C7)
▪ Relatively small
Support and movement of the head
Two unique: (image 7.24)
Traver
Process
C1 (Atlas): no body, large foramen
large S. Facets (yes)
C2 (Axis): Dens, (no)
C3-C6 show signs of typical
and bone manow
Body Mass of spongy bone
covered by compact bone
C7: Very elongated spinous process
Some unique features:
A. C2-C6: Spinous Process is bifid.
B. C1-C7: Transverse Foramen for
vertebral arteries
Slide 37 of 48
Thoracic (T1-T12)
Support of the thoracic cage
Somcunque features:
A. Spinous Process pointed downward and long
B. Body heart shaped of intermediate mass
Costal Favets indentations where ribs attached
D. T1-T10 have the transverse costal facets which provide
additional support for rib attachment.
E. T12 is a transitional vertebrae in terms of structure.
Spinaus Process
Lumbar (L1-L5)
* Weight bearing vertebrae
Attachment to lumbar muscles
. Somcunique features
A. Thick stout body
B. Squarish spinous process
C. Process positioning (combat twisting)
