Structure of the Spine
The intervertebral
Th i t t b l di
discs are fibrocartilaginous
fib til i structures
t t th t
that
cushion the anterior spinal symphysis joints. The center region
is the nucleus pulposus,
pulposus a colloidal gel with a high fluid
content. This is surrounded by the annulus fibrosus, a thick,
fibrocartilaginous ring that forms the disk exterior.
