Title: Do any muscles attach close to the IVDs of the spine? Post by: MIscQuestions on Aug 3, 2019 It's hard to figure it out from the images. If so what muscles?
Title: Re: Do any muscles attach close to the IVDs of the spine? Post by: bio_man on Aug 3, 2019 Just so that we're on the same page, IVDs = intervertebral discs
(https://www.physio-pedia.com/images/b/bc/Psoas_major.gif) The psoas major is a large muscle with attachments on the vertebral bodies, discs, and transverse processes from T-12 to L-5. Others include: Iliocostalis – the lateral most column. Longissimus – the middle column. Spinalis – the medial most column; lines up by spinous processes. |
