2 radiographs of the cervical spine (front and profile view) detail the cervical vertebrae: bony structures (vertebral body, uncus, transverse, spinous and articular processes, pedicle.) and the various joints (atlanto-occipital, facet and costovertebral joints.2 plates of entire spinal column, in front and profile impacts, allowing the spinal vertebrae to be numbered and showing the physiological curvatures (cervical lordosis, thoracic kyphosis, lumbar lordosis, sacral kyphosis (sacral)).Īnatomy - Vertebral column - Anterior-posterior full-length view of the spine/Lateral full-length view of the spine : Spine, Primary curvature, Thoracic kyphosis, Sacral kyphosis, Secondary curvatures, Cervical lordosis, Lumbar lordosis, Scoliosis, Vertebra.It is particularly useful for radiologists, electroradiology students, emergency physicians, orthopedic surgeons and rheumatologists, but may be used as a daily or a teaching support for any practitioner, physician or student involved in the musculoskeletal pathology of the spine (spinal disc herniation, osteoporosis, vertebral compression, spinal trauma, sciatica.)ġ8 radiographic plates most commonly used in medical practice were selected, covering the whole of the spinal column:Ĭervical vertebrae - Radiographs : Zygapophysial joints, Uncus of body Uncinate process, Transverse process, Superior articular process
