Aus Dornheim Anatomy
The vertebrae vary in the different regions of the spine in terms of their size and their special characteristics. On the one side, the vertebral bodies increase in size from cranial to caudal and on the other, the vertebral foramen gradually become smaller as the spinal cord becomes narrower. Furthermore, the appearance of the vertebral arches and the adjacent processes changes.
