at the level of the inter-vertebral disc between T4 and T5.
Sternal refers to the sternum, which is the breast bone.
A lumbar puncture, also known as a spinal tap, is typically performed in a hospital, clinic, or doctor's office. It is done in a sterile procedure room by a healthcare provider such as a doctor or nurse.
No, the axillary region is lateral to the sternal region. The axillary region is located under the arm, while the sternal region is in the center of the chest, between the breasts.
Dermal puncture refers to a technique used to obtain capillary blood samples by pricking the skin using a lancet or needle. It is commonly done on the finger, heel, or other suitable site for blood collection in medical settings such as hospitals, clinics, or laboratories.

it marks the position of the second rib
Yes, the sternal angle, also known as the angle of Louis, is an important anatomical landmark for locating the second rib. It is found at the junction of the manubrium and the body of the sternum and typically aligns with the second rib. By palpating the sternal angle, clinicians can easily identify the second rib and subsequent ribs, facilitating procedures such as auscultation or the placement of medical devices.
at the level of the inter-vertebral disc between T4 and T5.
The structures that pass through the sternal angle, also known as the angle of Louis, include the aortic arch, the trachea, the thoracic duct, and the ligamentum arteriosum. This anatomical landmark is important for identifying the level of the second rib and the intervertebral disc between T4 and T5.

I think you mean level of the vertebral column is a lumbar puncture generally performed?
The sternal area is around the sternum (breastbone) in the center of the chest.
8 are sternal & 10 are asternal.
The sternal angle and the right atrium are typically used to measure jugular venous pressure by observing the level of jugular venous distention during physical examination. The sternal angle is used as a reference point on the chest for measuring central venous pressure.
in adults its done at L3 and L4 or L4 and L5
