Thoracic Spine and Thorax
The thoracic spine is a rigid, osseous region due to interconnections between the thoracic spine and costals (rib cage). In addition to high compression zones in the cervicothoracic and thoracolumbar region, steep craniocaudal angulation of the facet joints, and the high number of tonic muscles in this area make the thoracic spine ideal for housing internal organs and providing stability for distal appendages.
