Fig. 4 shows the back with the second layer of musclesremoved, and the third layer revealed. In this illustration thetransverse processes are also seen in some segments, whilethe spinous processes are very evident. Fig. 5 shows the back with the fourth layer of muscles re-moved and the fifth layer exposed. The spinous and trans-verse processes can be readily seen. Fig. 6 shows the back with the fourth layer of musclesremoved and the fifth layer exposed. The spinous processesin this illustration are entirely uncovered by muscles and liga-ments and stand out very prominently. Fig. 7 shows the left half of the back, the right half hav-ing been entirely removed by disarticulating the ribs from thevertebrae, for the purpose of showing the intervertebral 32 SPINAL ADJUSTMENT. Fig. 7. ANATOMICAL BASIS OF CHIROPRACTIC 33 foramina seen in the following figure. This illustrates a pos-terior view of the back, with all muscles and ligaments re-moved, and showing the vertebrae. The lower ribs have beendisarticulated, and the pleura is visible. This figure showsvery clearly the displacement of the eighth thoracic vertebra;note the prominence of the transverse process on the right side,which shows that the vertebra is rotated toward the left; theright side of the intervertebral cartilage was also compressed;and the vertebra displaced upward, as shown by the factthat the transverse processes of the eighth and ninth vertebraeare close to each other. The upward displacement is wellshown in the following figure. Fig. 8 shows two intervertebral foramina which are muchdiminished in size, as will be readily noted by comparing themwith the other foramina shown. These foramina whose lu
