N2 - An anthropometric model for human vertebrae in the mid-sagittal plane is described, using parameters which were measured from lateral X-rays of the cervical and lumbar regions in normal, healthy men. The data was processed statistically and results are presented. The findings reported are new in the literature. They can be used in many ways, including modelling of the spine, and orthopedics. Clinically significant parameters are the heights of the vertebral bodies and the intervertebral spacings. The relations between these parameters are presented and discussed.
