Compare cervical and lumbar vertebrae, discs and neural relations through five labeled model-derived views.
Use paired 2D and 3D views to relate vertebrae, discs and neural tissues. Compare regions before reasoning about movement. The atlas cannot establish a pain generator, muscle activation pattern or individual loading tolerance.
Inspect cross-sectional 2D slice atlases and orbit 3D structural assemblies connected to this clinical topic.
Compare cervical and lumbar vertebrae, discs and neural relations through five labeled model-derived views.
A separate cervical assembly preserves the different shape of C1, the dens of C2, and the lower cervical vertebrae. Compare this model with the lumbar spine using the linked atlas.
Explore five lumbar vertebrae, the sacrum, intervertebral discs, cauda equina and deep posterior muscles. Bone and disc surfaces come from BodyParts3D; multifidus and the disc nucleus are teaching overlays. Hide bone to inspect internal anatomy.
