title: [Biometry of the thoracic spine using scanography].
abstract: Biometry was performed on CT scan of a human thoracic spine. The entire spine was removed from the fresh corpse of an adult man. Horizontal cross-sections were performed, every 6 mm from C7 to L1. Measurements involved the main diameters of the vertebrae, spinal canal and spinal cord, muscular depth and punctures. Several density measurements were noted.
