Testing Lumbar vertebrae using XRAYs

The video tutorial provides an overview of vertebral anatomy as seen in X-rays. It covers key components such as the vertebral body, introvertible foramen, spinous process, pedicles, facet joints, and transverse process. Each section focuses on different parts of the vertebrae, explaining their structure and function.

What is the primary focus of the vertebral body in an X-ray?

• Pedicle facet

• Spinous process

• Transverse process

• Introvertible foramen

Which structure is repeated in the discussion of the vertebrae?

• Spinous process

• Transverse process

• Pedicle facet

• Joint

What is the function of pedicles in vertebrae?

• Form the joint surfaces

• Connect the vertebral body to the arch

• Support the introvertible foramen

• Protect the spinal cord

Which part of the vertebrae is associated with articulation?

• Spinous process

• Transverse process

• Pedicle facet

• Introvertible foramen

What is the role of the transverse process in vertebrae?

• Support the vertebral body

• Provide muscle attachment points

• Protect the spinal cord

• Form the joint surfaces
