This refers to the normal apppearance of some vertebrae, specifically the lumbar vertebrae, which have a wedged shape. The anterior aspect of lumbar vertebrae are shorter than the posterior aspect, giving them a wedged shape from posterior to anterior. This shape helps contribute to the lumbar lordosis (normal curve). The lumbar curve is called an elliptical curve (so not a "c" curve like the neck but more like an ellipse). The vertebrae can appear like this if there is a past compression fracture or fractures.
the Vertebral end plate is the section of the vertebra that in faces with the spinal disk the inferior end plate is the bottom side of a vertebra. so the Anterior section of the inferior end plate of C# or T# would be the inside if the person side of the bottom side of the vertebra.
The cerebral peduncles and the optic tract form the anterior portion of the midbrain.
Anterior wedging in the cervical spine refers to a condition where the front portion of a vertebrae in the neck appears compressed or wedged compared to the back portion. This can be seen on imaging studies like X-rays or MRIs and may be associated with conditions like osteoporosis or spinal fractures. Treatment may vary depending on the underlying cause and severity of the wedging.
The axis supports the weight of the head.
The vertebral body is the most anterior part of a typical vertebrae. It is the weight-bearing portion of the vertebrae and serves as the main point of articulation with adjacent vertebrae in the spinal column.

C5 and C6 are cervical vertebrae found in the neck. Anterior osteophytes of C5 and C6 are bone spurs that have formed on the front portion of vertebrae 5 and 6 in your neck. This can be a very painful condition.

The front portion of the body is called the anterior aspect or the ventral side.
The body of each vertebra is attached to a bony ring consisting of several parts. A bony projection on either side of the vertebral body called the pedicle supports the arch that protects the spinal canal. The laminae are the parts of the vertebrae that form the back of the bony arch that surrounds and covers the spinal canal. There is a transverse process on either side of the arch where some of the muscles of the spinal column attach to the vertebrae. The spinous process is the bony portion of the vertebral body that can be felt as a series of bumps in the center of a person's neck and back.

The most anterior portion of the coxal (hip) bones is the pubis, or pubic bone.
The cerebral peduncles and the optic tract form the anterior portion of the midbrain.
Yes. Caudal means of, in, or at the tail. The coccyx is the portion of the vertebral spine that is at the very bottom of the spine. It is believed to have once been a tail in humans and still can be elongated like a tail as a rare congenital condition.
