that portion of total ventilatory compliance ascribable to compliance of the thoracic cage
It pertains to the thorax... But you can use it as a thoracic spine, thoracic surgery, thoracic cavity, thoracic outlet syndrome, thoracic spine pain, thoracic vertebrae, thoracic medicine, thoracic surgeons, thoracic strains, sprain thoracic, or thoracic spine disorder; it's pretty self explanatory.
The body cavity bounded by the ribs is the thoracic cavity. It contains the heart, lungs, and other structures involved in breathing and circulation.
The upper limit of the human thoracic cavity is the superior thoracic aperture, which is also known as the thoracic inlet. This aperture is bounded by the first thoracic vertebra, the first pair of ribs, and the superior border of the manubrium of the sternum.
The thoracic cavity is superior to the abdominopelvic cavity.
the thoracic spine is above the lumbar spine which means ALL thoracic vertebrae are superior to the lumbar vertebrae.

The phrase "calcification of the thoracic" is incomplete. There a missing word after "thoracic."

thoracic 4
The pleural cavities, ventral and thoracic
The coastal processes are located on the thoracic vertebrae. These processes articulate with the ribs to form the thoracic cage, which protects the vital organs in the thoracic cavity.
The ribs articulate with the thoracic vertebrae. The thoracic vertebrae also articulate with each other.
Twelve thoracic vertebrae, same as you have.
