Anatomy

Vertebra

A single typical human vertebra shown as an isolated irregular bone in superior-oblique or three-quarter anatomical view. The bone is off-white to pale ivory or light beige, with a thick rounded to block-like anterior vertebral body, a central vertebral foramen enclosed by the vertebral arch, paired pedicles and laminae, laterally projecting transverse processes, a posterior midline spinous process, and visible superior articular processes or facets, with some views also showing inferior articular processes. The surface is smooth cortical bone with subtle natural bony texture, slight porous variation at edges, and clean educational anatomical presentation.
