RT or LT posterior oblique for dorsal vertebrae demonstrate:
A- Spinal processes
B- Vertebral bodies
C- Apophyseal joints
D- Disc spaces
E- Transverse processes

Dorsal vertebrae:
Also known as thoracic vertebrae, they are those that make up the center of the spine and are characterized by being one of the thickest, being surpassed by the lumbar.
The cervical ones are the ones in front of them and the lumbar ones behind, which is why they are located in the middle, as mentioned above.
In humans they are around 12, fulfilling a different function each; although, this and the form they present may vary, depending on the type of animal with which it is being treated.
Its mobility capacity is lower compared to the other vertebrae, all this as a result of the size and degree of inclination that can be achieved when stretching or rotating.
Dorsal vertebrae:
With respect to their physical conformation, they can be similar to other vertebrae, in addition to the different characteristics they share with those of their same class.
One of its main functions is to carry the weight of the skull and the vertebrae that are above it.
The body is a structure that is wider on one side than on the other, it has a cylindrical shape and, at the same time, a heart.
Some of them are very close to the ribs and allow them to do some mobility.
Among the most prominent are the T1, T9 and T12, due to the structural development they present, being considered atypical.
The T1 vertebra is characterized by being, transversely, wider than the others and having a concave face, just as its apophysis is long and thin.
The T9 can be easily recognized by having flat articular veneers and the T12 is somewhat similar to the T11, but its anatomy aligns it almost perfectly with the first lumbar vertebra.
