The spinal nerves exit from the vertebral column through openings between adjacent vertebrae. These openings, called intervertebral foramina, are located just in front of the facet joints.
They exit from what are called intervertebral foramina (foramen means opening).
intervertebral foramina: the right and left pedicles have notches on their inferior and superior surfaces that create openings, the intervertebral foramina, for spinal nerves to exit the spinal cord between adjacent vertebrae.
Are the following involved: Inter vertebral discs along with spinous process and transverse process
There is a hollow column in the vertebra called 'thecal sac' in which the spinal cord passes from brain to the lowest part of the vertebral column
Intervertebral foramina.
the artery.
cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral nerves
The cranial nerves exit from the brain inside the cranial cavity.
The glossopharyngeal (CN IX) and Vagus (X) exit the skull through the jugular foramen.
nuclear pores
We have twelve cranial nerves as part of the peripheral nervous system. Though they exit the cranium and are mostly associated with senses and functions of the head, they have far reaching affects, all the way down into the abdominal organs. They are as follows: I. Olfactory II. Optic III. Oculomotor IV. Trochlear V. Trigeminal VI. Abducens VII. Facial VIII. Vestibulocochlear IX. Glossopharyngeal X. Vagus XI. Spinal Accessory XII. Hypoglossal It is the Vagus nerve that has the farthest reaching affects, including the heat, lungs, and gastrointestinal system.

Intervertebral Foramina
Vertebral foramen are the spaces between adjacent vertebrae where the spinal nerves exit the spinal canal.
cervical spinal nerves, thoracic spinal nerves, lumbar spinal nerves, sacral spinal nerves
There are 31 pairs of spinal nerves:Cervical- 8 pairThoracic- 12 pairLumbar- 5 pairSacral- 5 pairCoccygeal- 1 pairMost exit through their intervertebral foramen (openings in between and towards the back of the vertebra of the spinal column), spinal nerves are named according to the vertebrae they exit from.The first pair of spinal nerves exits between the occipital bone of the skull and the first cervical vertebra.The Sacral and Coccygeal nerves exit from the sacrum (the five fused vertebrae at the base of the spine) through the sacral foramina (openings or holes on running down along both sides of the sacrum).

Spondylotic ridging found on MRI is when there is calcification of the posterior longitudinal ligament, which runs behind the bodies of vertebrae caudal to cephlad. Neural foramina are the openings in the spinal column where the spinal nerves exit to the periphery.
