Using a technique of diaphanization, modified from the one described by Spalteholz in 1924 and once more modified, for this study, for studying bone, the authors had to use a decalcification process. The authors studied the differences in arterial vascularization between the cervical, thoracic and lumbar vertebrae and also the vascularization of each of the vertebral elements.
