Eleventh thoracic vertebrae (T11): At this level, the T11 begins to resemble the size and structure of a lumbar vertebrae. The articular facets for the heads of the ribs are large and primarily on the pedicles, which are thicker and stronger in T11 and T12, than in T1-T10.
The thoracic vertebrae are T1 - T12. The lumbar vertebrae are L1 - L5. The sacrum and coccyx do not have numbers and each is thought of as one bone. Spinal nerves exit the sacrum and coccyx at levels (Foramen) within the main structure of each vertebra.
