Bones of the Chest
The cross sectional appearance of the outer layer of bone is visualized in this CT scan through the heart. The vertebra (purple) and sternum (green) act as the anchoring stability as they remain fixed in position during the respiratory cycle. The ribs (orange) pivot like bucket handles off the sternum and spinal column. They move up and out during inspiration and down and in during expiration.
