Anatomy of the Spine: Foundation for Understanding Degeneration

  • Ajay Bharti

摘要

The anatomy of the spine is the foundation for understanding its role in supporting the body and facilitating movement. This chapter explores the structural and functional differences among the spinal regions, the biomechanical properties that enable flexibility and load distribution and the cellular mechanisms that drive degeneration over time. By examining the intricate anatomy and physiology of the spine, one can better appreciate the underlying causes of degenerative spinal conditions and the importance of targeted interventions to mitigate their effects.
