22 APPENDIKS
12.1. Vertebrae, Foramen nutritium
All thoracic and lumbar vertebrae are scored.
At least 75% of the “wall” of each Corpus
vertebra has to be preserved in order to
score it.
Thoracic vertebrae
The numbers of thoracic vertebrae, which “walls” are pre-
Step I served more than 75% are noted. If there are no thoracic
vertebrae, or they are preserved less than 75% a “/” are
noted, and the scoring of the thoracic vertebrae stops here.
The numbers of thoracic vertebrae with hypervascularity and
foramen nutritium larger than 3 mm are noted. The area
around the biggest of the foramenn nutritium can be sunken
in, and the opening of the foramen nutritium will have the
Step II shape of a funnel.
Set a slidingscale at 3mm, and see if it can pass through the
opening of the foramen nutritium in question.
Lumbar vertebrae
The numbers of lumbar vertebrae, which “walls” are pre-
Step I served more than 75% are noted. If there are no lumbar
vertebrae, or they are preserved less than 75% an “/” are
noted, and the scoring of the lumbar vertebrae stops here.
The numbers of lumbar vertebrae with hypervascularity and
foramen nutritium larger than 3 mm are noted. The area
around the biggest of the foramen nutritium can be sunken
Step II in, and the opening of the foramen nutritium will have the
shape of a funnel.
Set a sliding scale at 3mm. and see if it can pass through the
opening of the foramen nutritium in question.
