VERTEBRA PROMINENS
Anatomy of the seventh cervical vertebra (vertebra prominens). The
spinous process is long and palpable under the skin, therefore is used
for the counting of the vertebrae. The spinous process has a thickened
tuberculous tip, helping the palpation in living patient.

Thoracic vertebrae: body is having two pairs of small, costal articular surfaces.
Vertebral foramen is narrow, surrounded by a strong arcus (arch). Strong
transverse processes are directed posterolaterally, possessing another
articular surface for the rib tubercle. The processus spinosus is long and
directed obliquely down. Upper articular processes and lower articular
Processes have plain articular surfaces in the frontal plane (almost frontal).
The 10th, 11th and 12th: only one costal facet on the body.
The 11th and 12th: no costal facet on the transverse process.
