This high-fidelity medical illustration depicts the full human vertebral column in lateral view, clearly distinguishing the cervical (7 vertebrae), thoracic (12), lumbar (5), sacral (5 fused), and coccygeal (3-5 fused) segments. Intervertebral discs are shown in cross-section with annulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus layers, emphasizing spinal flexibility and shock absorption. The natural lordotic and kyphotic curves are accurately rendered to reflect biomechanical alignment.
