Schematic diagram of 3D images. (a-c) LPER: the lowest point of epiphyseal ring posterior margin. VNU: the vertical distance from the LPER to the inferior margin of the cervical nerve at the position of the uncinate process tip. VNI: the vertical distance from the LPER to the cervical nerve inferior margin origin. VNS: the vertical distance from the LPER to the cervical nerve superior margin origin. DLB: the left-right distance from the LPER to the dura mater lateral border. ANU: the anteroposterior distance from the LPER to the anterior margin of the cervical nerve at the position of the uncinate process tip. PLB: the anteroposterior distance from the LPER to the vertebral pedicle isthmus lateral border.
