Our data suggest that elective induction of labour at term (at 37 weeksâ gestation or more) is associated with a decreased odds of perinatal death without an associated decrease in spontaneous vertex delivery. However, there was an increased risk of neonatal admission to a special care unit.
Thoracic spine x-ray. A thoracic spine x-ray is an x-ray of the twelve chest (thoracic) bones (vertebrae). The vertebrae are separated by flat pads of cartilage called disks that provide a cushion between the bones. The test is done in a hospital radiology department or in the health care provider's office.
T11. The thoracic spinal vertebrae consist of 12 total vertebrae and are located between the cervical vertebrae (which begin at the base of the skull) and the lumbar spinal vertebrae.enerally, the spinal bones are larger and heavier the further down they are located. This helps each vertebra to support the weight of the vertebrae above it, as well as the weight of the skull and brain. Like all of its spinal counterparts, T11 protects the spinal cord by encasing it in bone.
