Cervical vertebrae refer to the vertebrae in the neck area, and their English name is: cervical vertebra. The cervical vertebrae are located below the head and above the thoracic vertebrae. There are seven cervical vertebrae in total. Except for the first and second cervical vertebrae, there is an intervertebral disc between each pair of vertebrae. Including the disc between the seventh cervical vertebra and the thoracic vertebra, there are a total of 6 intervertebral discs in the cervical region. Each cervical vertebra consists of a vertebral body and a vertebral arch. The vertebral body is an oval-shaped column, and the vertebral arch is connected to it; together they form the vertebral foramen. All the vertebral foramina connect to form the spinal canal, within which the spinal cord is located. The cervical vertebrae are also the segment in the spine with the smallest volume, but the highest flexibility, the most frequent movement, and the greatest load-bearing capacity.
