Wirbelsäulenbereich
The Wirbelsäulenbereich, commonly known as the spinal region, is a crucial part of the human skeletal and nervous system. It consists of a series of vertebrae that extend from the skull to the lower back, forming a flexible column that supports the body’s weight and protects the spinal cord.
